Takeover should create 'opportunities' for the Island
Tesco has evidenced a 'clear commitment' to local suppliers in conversations with government since its takeover of the Island's Shoprite stores.
That's according to the Chief Minister who has been speaking to gathered Tynwald members this morning.
Three urgent questions were tabled on the sale of Shoprite to Tesco.
Politicians are currently quizzing Alfred Cannan in the Tynwald chamber.
