The Department of Social Care presented its housing review recommendations report last night to the Island’s commissioners.
Throughout the consultation process Onchan Commissioners have voiced major concerns about the setting up of regional housing bodies.They also voiced their disdain that Douglas Corporation won’t be placed into a regional housing authority, either on its own or with other local authorities.
The Commissioners will meet on Monday to plan their response to the report.
Chief executive of Onchan Commissioners Malcolm Hulme says the issue is one of the most serious he’s faced throughout his tenure:
13 arrested in drink-drive campaign
Laxey road shut until January
Former Motor Museum goes on the market
No Onchan Park plan, say commissioners
Laxey campsite to get campervan improvements
Local authority: don't suffer in silence at Xmas
Government reminder over salt bins
Weather warning in place for high tides
