Tynwald allows MNH to sell building belonging to Donald Collister
Tynwald has given Manx National Heritage permission to sell a bequeathed property, so it can afford to fix the Laxey Wheel.
Laxey's Lady Isabella hasn't been fully operational since 2019, requiring essential repairs.
Under the Manx Museum and National Trust Act any sale of a property must have the approval of Tynwald.
The building in question was bequeathed to MNH by the late Donald (Donny) Collister.
Enterprise Minister Laurence Skelly brought the motion to members this week:
'Bleak future' for Manx businesses if people don't shop local
Declining amount of food production 'quite frightening'
Charity continuing to provide support to family of murdered teenager
'Significant progress' on Manxman repairs over the last week
