A new forum to enable representatives of large Manx towns to discuss matters of mutual interest, such as housing, could be on the way.
Ramsey commissioner Leonard Singer came up with the idea for an association, which would include Onchan, Douglas, Peel, Castletown and Ramsey.
An organisation already exists for the Island's local authorities, but most of the towns are not members.
Mr Singer (pictured) explains how the association would work:
Figures show cost of works at Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital
Jump in routine and urgent maintenance costs
Section of former Ramsey Bakery site could become a motorcycle shop
Ramsey business looking to move premises
Cyber security event to take place later this year
Recent UK survey shows 43% of business were attacked in 25/26
