Vision to attract huge new audience
The TT has a new promoter today – after Tynwald voted to sign a 10-year contract with Vision Nine to run the biggest event in the Island’s calendar.
After more than an hour of debate in the chamber yesterday, members voted 27 to 3 in favour of a deal with the company.
Economic Development Minister Laurence Skelly says the agreement aims to bring tens of thousands more people to TT and the Festival of Motorcycling.
But can the Island accommodate more people during the events? Mr Skelly says yes:
Pothole claims cost department thousands
Increase in scarlet fever on the Island
Government 'neglecting' heritage assets across the Island
Motiv8: 'We will never reach all the children on the Isle of Man'
