Minister gives figures to House of Keys
More than £276,000 has been spent on looking into the TT World Series – which has now been shelved.
Economic Development Minister Laurence Skelly gave the figure in the House of Keys this morning, when he faced questions from North Douglas MHK John Houghton.
Mr Skelly said he didn’t feel the project was worth pursuing and that more work could be done on the Island-based event.
But the announcement sparked anger from Mr Houghton:
Steam Packet wanted to be 'certain' before issuing statement, says MD
Manxman to be out of service until late September
Onchan Commissioner denies assaulting member of public
David Quirk claims he acted in 'self-protection' following verbal abuse
Tourists praise 'unique' horse tramway
Manx Heritage Transport Festival gets underway
Manxman won't return to service until end of September
Steam Packet says the situation is hugely disappointing
