Seats on every board of commissioners available
The deadline is looming for those wanting to stand in next month's local authority elections.
Every seat on every board of commissioners and Douglas Borough Council will be available when voters head to the polls on Thursday, 22 July.
A number of current and former senior figures in local authority politics have raised concerns about a lack of interest.
Candidates have already declared for boards in places such as Braddan, Douglas and Ramsey.
Anybody who is interested has until Tuesday (29 June) to officially put their name forward.
For more information you're asked to contact your local authority directly, with additional details available online at gov.im.
