I believe the break out session run by the CoC on the economic strategy (the only thing most people will be wanting to attend) is now invite only or they’re charging people to attend. No wonder few are signing up https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/isle-of-man-government-conference-2022-tickets-392361542937?aff=ebdsoporgprofile Heres the conference structure if anyones interested. https://www.gov.im/media/1377703/iomgovconf-programme0109.pdf Be most interesting to learn if the key economic shifts the Island needs to make to ensure future prosperity the Chief Minister highlights will accord with the recommendations of the KPMG third report https://www.gov.im/media/1377116/our-big-picture-phase-3-report-final-public.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead easy to be an extension of DFEs ideas division, completely different actually building stuff I'd really prefer that the Housing & Communities Board were doing this - MDC is a Cannan glamour project Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

offshoremanxman Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 (edited) Gef is now sending out FB event notifications. They’re clearly desperate to get any sort of participation at this stage (this one is after work too). Hosted by Gef’s Sam Turton and Business 365’s Paul Speller, they’ll be looking backwards, forwards, upwards and downwards at the goings on in Manx politics since last year’s General Election. Throughout the evening, they’ll be joined onstage by Chief Minister Alf Cannan, Cabinet Office Minister Kate Lord-Brennan and Treasury Minister Dr Alex Allinson.

Speaking of gef, loveiom and loads of government money. I notice that capital international seem to be featuring heavily in everything government related. Prime slot at the conference and a green related steampacket article. What's the link here? Does buying all the loveiom cards grant special govt privileges?

SleepyJoe Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Ply is a bit too dear for shuttering isn't it? OSB board seems to be the affordable thing nowadays 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSB board seems to be the affordable thing nowadays Exterior ply is cheap enough. You may note half of the shuttering is capped and in good condition. The other half isn’t and is in very poor condition already due to water ingress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won’t matter anyway, as both IOMG and taxpayers controlled body will not do maintenance, like with other properties, so it’s highly likely to fall into disrepair if poor materials are used. I do hope that that the relevant standards apply to the MDC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d think someone would have sense checked it before it was dispatched to the scheduler. I mean. He’s the Chief Minister FFS and you can’t even spell his name correctly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
