Chief Minister sends sympathy letters to Norway

Thu, 28 Jul 2011

The Chief Minister has sent letters of sympathy to the King and Prime Minister of Norway in the wake of the massacre and bomb attack.

On Friday, 76 people died at the hands of a right-wing extremist.

Tony Brown says as a nation with close ties to Norway, the Island has a close affiliation and feels the country's pain.

The letters say the Isle of Man sends its heart-felt condolences to Norway's government and people.

Tynwald President Clare Christian has also sent condolences to her counterpart in the Norwegian Parliament.
