Positive Action Group to tackle eGaming

"eGaming – Assessing its value” will see Peter Greenhill from the Department of Economic Development and MHK Howard Quayle discuss the sector.

It currently represents 10 per cent of the Manx economy and PAG will determine whether our economic dependence on it is good or bad.

Roger Tomlinson says their meeting will be addressing both sides of the coin:
