Juan McGuinness believes technology has a role to play
Ramsey Commissioner Juan McGuinness says it makes sense to look at updating local authority legislation in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.

Current rules prevent authorities from ratifying decisions remotely.
Mr McGuinness feels its important to utilise technology if necessary:
