Raft of Pinewood questions for Tuesday's House of Keys

Fri, 19 Oct 2012

Michael MHK Alf Cannan will be asking a raft of questions on the Pinewood film studios deal during Tuesday’s House of Keys sitting.

It was recently finalised that government had purchased five million shares representing a 9.89% stake in the major film studio company.

The first three questions on the order paper will see Mr Cannan try to ascertain what benefits the Isle of Man set to gain from the deal and why the original proposal of a 14.9% was scrapped.

MHK’s Howard Quayle and Kate Beecroft will also be asking questions on the matter.

Speaking to the station the Michael MHK said as far as he sees it there can only be one winner from this.
