Issue should be government priority
Getting people back on the voting register should be a key priority for government - that's according to Douglas Council Leader David Christian.
Latest figures show 12,000 fewer people are on the voters list in comparison to the previous quarterly register.
There are both local authority and general elections taking place on the Island next year.
Mr Christian has warned of a worryingly low turnout unless something is done:
Department brands loss of Greeba tree 'regrettable'
Four replacement trees to be planted at site
Inmates stage prison protest over time spent in cells
DHA confirms 'isolated passive incident' at Jurby facility
Local clothing retailers rated poorly in new survey
