Chair questions current Covid rules
A representative of pubs on the Island has echoed calls for more salary support for Manx businesses.
Geoff Joughin is chair of the Licensed Victuallers Association and owner of the Albert Hotel in Douglas.
He says although current restrictions mean close contacts don't need to self isolate, keeping pubs open where staff have tested positive for Covid-19 doesn't make sense.
Mr Joughin thinks as long as pubs and bars feel compelled to shut their doors government should be providing more salary support:
Red flag stops Senior TT race
TT campers in 'high spirits' despite rain affecting race week
Further delay to TT schedule due to 'non-racing operational matter'
Crash which closed the Mountain Road ahead of racing 'not too serious'
Fine for pair who brought drugs to Island in campervan toilet
