It’s been announced the Island’s regional swimming pools will be reviewed by a third party, with all community pool boards invited to participate.
The Department of Education, Sport and Culture has ordered the survey.
As an interim measure the department will also cover pool operational costs for the next 12 months.
Chair of the Northern Swimming Pool Board, Juan McGuinness, welcomes the decision but says it was never the intention for regional swimming facilities to become self-sufficient:
Steam Packet sailings delayed tonight
PPE Medpro put into liquidation
Part of TT course closed tomorrow
Carl Cox backs cancer charity's TT fundraising auction
Business appeal over thousands in unpaid bills
Pharmacy plans for former IOM Bank
Appeal after wood from van damages car
Island part of union data breach investigation
