Document due to be finalised later this month
An Onchan commissioner says he doesn’t believe a new draft Local Economy Strategy goes far enough.
Government published the document last month – it aims to ensure the wellbeing of retail, hospitality and leisure industries on the Island for the next 10 years.
The Department for Enterprise is due to finalise the document later in September.
A workshop – where feedback on the strategy can be given – is taking place on 5 September in Douglas; you can out more HERE.
David Quirk told Manx Radio he doesn’t think government is engaging well enough with hospitality businesses in particular:
£41K spent on encouraging people to shop local
Baton of Hope to come back to Isle of Man
CoC 'keen' for continuity of sidecar racing at TT
2026 Manx Grand Prix to begin today
