MHK queries cost of attitude survey

Tue, 28 Jun 2016

How much did a survey about social attitudes on the Isle of Man cost?

That's one of the questions being raised by Onchan MHK Peter Karran in the House of Keys today.

He wants to know what the purpose of the survey was and why questions were asked on political engagement, community relations and national identity.

He also wants to know how the survey could be anonymous when mandatory fields include post code and date of birth.

The Cabinet Office claimed the 78-questions would help shape government's future policy making.
