Tourism contract under spotlight

An investigation into a contract taken out by an old government department will continue next week.

The Public Accounts Committee, which is a Standing Committee of Tynwald, will take oral evidence in public on Wednesday.

It’s to do with a contract between the Department of Tourism and Leisure and Signature Sponsorship Limited.

Witnesses giving evidence will include former minister David Cretney, former chief executive Carol Glover and the former director of tourism Geoff Le Page.

Members of the public are welcome to attend the hearing which takes place in the Legislative Council Chamber.
