Savings on agenda for commissioner
There are savings to be made by combatting bureaucracy.
That's the view of a Castletown commissioner who's pursuing a seat in this year's general election.
Richard McAleer has a background in finance and the civil service - he's standing in the new constituency of Arbory, Castletown and Malew in September.
The 46-year-old says experience has taught him it's better to cut red tape where possible:
