MEA committee report delayed



The select committee, set up to examine the MEA borrowings row, will be reporting later rather than sooner.

In announcing a delay in accepting oral evidence, Keys Speaker Steve Rodan says the decision not to pursue legal action had released a further substantial body of written evidence. Indeed there was "much more to come".

So this extra evidence has slowed things up but will mean the final report may well be the more complete for that fact.
The search is also on for the specialist advice that is needed in some areas and this will need Tynwald approval for the cash required.

Also, for "fairness sake", the evidence, in file form, will be made available for witnesses to view beforehand, rather that being questioned " cold".
