Tony Brown says sport should sit in a separate department
A former chief minister says the expected recommendation to close the Southern Swimming Pool is proof the Department of Education, Sport and Culture's only focus is education.
A leaked letter sent to pool staff suggested a plan to close the facility permanently will be presented to Tynwald in February, subject to members' approval.
The move's said to be based purely on financial grounds.
Tony Brown, who was also an MHK for Castletown, says the move is proof sport should sit in a separate department:
Island's first rapid EV charger being installed
Mooir Vannin could be first of many
'Significant investment or redevelopment' needed at Ramsey District Cottage Hospital
Braddan Commissioners open expressions of interest for TT camping at Roundhouse
