Update on gov't commissioned KPMG project
An initiative to help develop a five to ten year economic strategy for the Island has been gathering momentum throughout the summer.
As part of the 'Our Big Picture' project government commissioned KPMG to help build a clear picture of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.
It's the first study of its kind to be undertaken and the findings will help guide policy in the years to come.
Partner Simon Nicholas is head of clients and markets in the Crown Dependencies and says the work to date has been very much behind the scenes:
Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital closure 'inconvenient' but 'significant issues' need to be fixed
Four local authorities looking for by-election candidates
Reinstatement of home births 'remains at top of agenda' for Manx Care
Weekend sailings at risk
Plans submitted for 85 new homes on former Buchan School site
