Cllr Natalie Byron-Teare says current systems are 'inefficient'
Douglas Council believes a £7,000 investment into the sound system at the crematorium will provide 'considerate and quality' funeral services.
The local authority says it's currently using multiple platforms to source and play music, a process which it describes as 'inefficient' and has an 'increased risk' of technical difficulties.
It's also confirmed that the other quote offered during the tender process was £30,000.
Chair of the Regeneration and Community Committee Natalie Byron-Teare hopes the new system will 'streamline' services and save on council resources.
