£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.

The last full census was held in 2021.
Minister David Ashford says it’s one of the most important tools we have for planning a ‘sustainable and well-supported’ future:
Doctors accept three-year pay offer
Seven acts promulgated in final Tynwald Day ceremony before election
Sharp rise in data breaches on Island, says Information Commissioner's Office
Footage circulating on social media 'now an active investigation'
