How much of the Dormant Assets Fund goes to the Manx Lottery Trust?

How much money from government's dormant assets fund finds it's way into the Manx Lottery Trust?

That was the question put forward by MHK Tim Glover in the House of Keys last week, who wanted to know how much money from the fund is currently being managed by the trust, and what plans there are for further payments over the next six months.

The Manx Lottery Trust award grants to numerous varied projects, group and schemes, geared toward improving the Island community.

Treasury Minister Dr Alex Allinson explained that the fund currently holds £282,000, and since March this year has pledged £1.68million to the Lottery Trust, with no firm figure on what they will receive over the next six months.
