DfE plea to help Manx economy over TT fortnight
There's a call for the public to promote TT fortnight this year, despite the event being cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Enterprise Minister Laurence Skelly made the plea at today's government media conference.
It was due to be the start of the annual event tomorrow (30 May).
He says while there's no racing, the Manx economy can still benefit from the two-week period:
This morning's sailing cancelled due to severe gales
Tonight's crossing remains at risk with gusts of up to 70mph forecast
Educating parents and a focus on diet 'key to tackling obesity'
Treasury minister believes there should be more emphasis on what children eat
National Insurance Holiday Scheme to be suspended
Government says data showed no tangible increase in workers
Treasury agrees customs and excise calculations with UK
£10 million figure broadly in line with Treasury's projections
