Former Chief Minister urges local authorities to support retail sector
The Island's towns and villages have to offer free parking to support the retail sector.
That's the view of former Chief Minister and businessman Tony Brown.
He believes local authorities and government have to make areas outside Douglas attractive to shoppers in order for local shops to be successful.
However, the ex-Castletown MHK says some boards don't appreciate the effect their decisions have on nearby stores:
Manx Radio's speech output falls below that required by licence agreement
CURA carries out monitoring review of public service broadcaster
MNH seeking to replace windows at new 'welcome hub'
Registered building is located next to Castle Rushen
Murder trial jury hears defendant's statement to police
Boy accused of murder told officers "I didn't intend to kill Chris"
