Enterprise Minister, Laurence Skelly MHK, says initial feedback from the Islands inaugural graduate fair has been 'extremely positive'.

It was held in Douglas last month aimed at showcasing the work opportunities available to students on the Island.

Speaking in the House of Keys earlier this week, Mr Skelly says given the response so far his department is considering the possibility of doing events like this on a more regular basis.

His comments came in response to a question on the matter from Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse.
