Working group now considering options to help officers
Police officers on the Island are ‘greatly’ valued and work is underway to tackle their concerns over pay.
That’s the pledge from the Justice and Home Affairs Minister who has told fellow politicians they are the ‘frontline’ in keeping the community safe.
It follows a survey, carried out by the Police Federation of the Isle of Man, which warned there could be a ‘mass exodus’ of officers.
Jane Poole-Wilson says a working group is attempting to come up with solutions but she’s warned that finances are already stretched:
'No change to hand baggage policy' says Steam Packet
Jail for man who tried to gouge a police officer's eyes out
Response to census "exceptionally good" so far, says minister
Rushen MHK calls for progress on 20mph zones in south
Man caught with indecent images of children spared jail
