A report by a Tynwald committee says Department for Enterprise agencies have failed to meet any of their aims since they were set up almost ten years ago.
The Economic Policy Review Committee looked into agencies such as Business Isle of Man, Digital Isle of Man and other bodies which fall under the DfE.
The committee's second report of this year says despite their aims to become industry-funded, make the most of the Island's industry experience and allow the public and private sectors to work hand in hand, none of the objectives have been achieved since they were formed in 2017.
The report is due to be discussed by Tynwald in July, and you can read it via a link on our website.
