Empty property figures discussed in Tynwald
Do we have a housing crisis on the Isle of Man?
Bill Shimmins MHK has been questioning the Chief Minister about empty properties on the Island, during Tynwald's first sitting back after the summer recess.
The figures were offered by government in the Cabinet Office's 'Vacant Properties Report', however don't sit consistently with numbers taken from Executive Summary.
Mr Shimmins says the report is misleading:
The Chief Minister says he will look into the figures.
