Estimates show Island's population is expected to reach 92,000 in 2035
The Isle of Man needs a vibrant environment if it wants to keep young workers here.
That's from the chief minister after he was questioned in Tynwald about government's aim to grow the Manx population to 100,000.
It's estimated the figure will reach 92,000 by 2035.
The latest figures from government show around 35 percent of those who move to the Island leave within five years, with Alfred Cannan conceding some turnover is to be expected.
He told Manx Radio the right surroundings are needed to make the Island an appealing place for the younger generations:
Manx Care spends more than £660,000 on reviews over two-year period
Chamber backs revised minimum wage rise after government U-turn
DESC begins recruitment process for new chief officer
More than 60 full-time equivalent roles identified in government communications and marketing posts
