The agriculture minister is cautiously welcoming the possibility of Manx farmers working with an English firm which runs a number of abbatoirs.

Takeaway proposal branded 'blight' on community by Planning Committee
Chair Rob Callister said he 'sympathised' with local residents
Part of TT course subject to daytime road closures later this month
DOI carrying out preparation work between Ballig and Cronk Y Voddy
