Sector figure urging new Treasury Minister to 'get involved in the real world'
A key representative of the hospitality sector has appealed to the new treasury minister to get involved in the real world, as he terms it.
Andy Gibbs, of Jaks and the Licensed Victuallers says regular meetings between the industry and the government would be very helpful.
Earlier this week, Chris Thomas was appointed as treasury minister following the dismissal of Dr Alex Allinson during a cabinet reshuffle by Chief Minister, Alfred Cannan.
They would, he says, give the Treasury an insight into what was happening:
Sailings altered as 'ongoing dredging issues' lead to 'insufficient water depths in Douglas port'
Manx Care asks all GPs to formally adopt Jess's Rule
Government 'taking rising fuel prices seriously'
Motion to sell Old Castletown Police Station to be put before Tynwald
