Report on the government's handling of the pandemic to be published next year

A final report following a review into the government's handling of the coronavirus pandemic will be published by 31 December 2023.

In this month's sitting of Tynwald the Chief Minister will move that Tynwald approves the terms of reference for an independent review.

It'll cover a variety of areas, including border closures and restrictions, education provision, loss of life as a result of Covid-19, and government's communication with the public.

The review will be led by an independent chairperson, who will have full control over the final report that will be given to Tynwald before the end of next year.
