Arwid Hall is also a sitting Douglas Councillor
A new Ramsey Commissioner says despite also being a Douglas Councillor, he has the 'best interests' of the northern residents at heart.
Arwid Hall, who joined the commissioners in an uncontested election at the end of last month, believes the government is 'neglecting' the north and hopes to change this.
The cabinet office has confirmed that there are 'no restrictions' on people wanting to be a member of multiple local authorities
Mr Hall says being a commissioner isn't 'everyone's cup of tea' and he will be making sure there's no conflicts of interest.
