The chairman of Castletown Commissioners says he’s delighted the government is finally handing over powers to local authorities.
Commissioners have now started taking over services such as street-cleaning, after years of arguments over who could best run such provision.
On Agenda last night, Alwyn Collister said he and the rest of the board were very pleased with the moves to decentralise power.
But he says it might take a little patience for the changes to take full effect:
Plans submitted for 'significant' flood defences in Ramsey
Include installing a four-foot flood wall at West Quay
Tributes paid to cancer awareness campaigner
Sarah Jarvis has died at the age of 60
Police bail for two people arrested in Ramsey incident
One person was treated for injuries that were described as non-life-threatening
WCAS to extend opening hours next month
It's thanked patrons for their patience during 'very difficult times'
Government support for two 'long-stalled' Douglas developments
Former Newson's building and Duke Street site offered assistance through Island Infrastructure Scheme
