Unemployment rate down again
The minister for policy and reform says the latest employment figures are an accurate representation of the position on the Island.
They show the number of people out of work and claiming benefits on the Island has fallen, with some 349 people unemployed, a decrease of 22 from February and 50 fewer than March 2018.
That rate now stands at 0.8%, down from 0.9% in February.
Speaking on Mandate this morning, Chris Thomas said there were two definitions of unemployment:
'Unnecessary' delays left electricity customer in limbo
Manx Utilities classifies all pensioners as vulnerable people
'The Island needs to be able to compete' against other destinations
FOI revealed the Island spent more than £170,000 on influencers
Public urged to consult on capacity
