£400,000 to be spent conducting data gathering exercise
More than £400,000 will be spent later this year conducting an interim census.
Statistics Isle of Man will conduct the data gathering exercise in April.
The Cabinet Office was successful in gaining the funding for it as part of this year’s Budget which was approved by Tynwald this week.
