Views sought on future of the Isle of Man's Economy

Tue, 23 Aug 2022

The Manx Government wants to gather views on the future direction of the Island's Economy.

It has launched an extensive consultation on the draft Economic Strategy 2022-2032.

The draft 'Our Island, Our Future: Isle of Man Economic Strategy' was published in July.

Alfred Cannan MHK, Chief Minister, commented: ‘The draft Economic Strategy has been built upon months of research and evidence gathering that has led us to the conclusion that we must do something different to ensure the future prosperity of our people. The consultation being launched today asks everybody to take a stake in the future of the Island’s economy by expressing their ideas, alongside highlighting aspirations and economic shifts they’re in support of, in order to help us bring a stronger, updated version back to Tynwald in November.

‘The vision outlined in the draft Economic Strategy will impact all residents and I encourage everyone to take part in this consultation exercise.’

The consultation is open until 30^th September.
