Douglas Council says it will be keeping an eye on the government’s budget as it ‘will impact’ the authority.
It says it is ‘influenced’ by what Treasury does ‘especially’ in terms of housing stock.

Council leader Claire Wells says ‘everybody is under the cut’ but the government has been ‘supportive’.
