Minister keen to maximise efficiency
The Home Affairs Minister says he's 'eager' to delegate more of his Department's operations to private contractors.
Bill Malarkey was speaking to a Tynwald committee yesterday (Wed 11 Oct).
A consultation on contracting out certain police functions, such as custody cells, concluded last month, drawing 19 public responses.
Although he ruled out hiring a private firm such as G4S to run the Isle of Man Prison, he said tendering exercises at the Constabulary would 'free up officer's time'.
Mr Malarkey says he's keen to maximise efficiency:
