Quarry makes £750,000 for government

A government quarry which provides materials for the Island's roads has made a £750,000 profit over the past three years.

The figures were released in the House of Keys this week as Infrastructure Minister Ray Harmer responded to a question from Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper.

Mr Hooper wanted to know about income and expenditure at the Poortown Quarry, which provides rock and asphalt for road surfacing.

Mr Harmer said in total the quarry had made £757,713 since 2013.
