Community, Culture and Leisure Minister Says 22 Jobs Could Be Lost

Redundancies could be unavoidable if an alternative solution isn’t found soon says Community, Culture and Leisure Minister David Cretney.

He was asked in the House of Keys today about letters that were hand delivered to members of staff yesterday relating to their employment.

The letters were sent to 34 staff saying there is to be a period of informal consultation designed to allow employer and employees to work together to identify alternative solutions to job cuts.

Minister Cretney identified that if alternative measures cannot be found then 11 posts could go in the first phase of the next financial year, with the possibility of another 11 at a later date.
