Smartphones and logistics among areas to benefit, says minister
The Policy and Reform Minister hopes proposed changes to telecoms planning rules will ensure Manx residents can make the most of new technology.
Government is currently seeking feedback on plans to make it easier to install small-scale telecommunications equipment, particularly for fast fibre and 5G.
If given the go-ahead, the new policy would mean items such as roadside cabinets and some antennas wouldn't require planning permission.
Chris Thomas says this affects a range of areas:
Care funding reform report delayed following ministerial change
Charity plans baby loss memorial garden at Noble's Hospital
New rights for neonatal care leave and carer's leave on the way
Manx Wildlife Trust launches new internship programme
