An attempt to have Tynwald's Public Accounts Committee look into the Isle of Man's film industry fell at the first hurdle yesterday (Thursday).
Onchan MHK Peter Karran's motion asking for an investigation into CinemaNX, its accounts and operations failed to get a seconder and so wasn't discussed by the court.
In the chamber, Mr Karran repeated his earlier attacks on the industry, questioning its benefits:
Island's 'premier destination' for celebrations to close in December
Woodbourne House blames economic pressures and maintenance concerns
Torden Stores announces it's closing down
Owners say it's not been an easy decision
Crown Dependencies to opt for coordinated approach to APP fraud framework
Joint announcement aims to set agreed future direction on matter
IOMPO will go from 'strength to strength' in coming years says outgoing chair
But parcel delivery will undoubtedly be the focus
