Locate strategy aims to bring Manx workers home

Enterprise Minister hopes Manx people will move back to Island

The Enterprise Minister hopes plans to increase the Island's economically active population will create opportunities for Manx people living elsewhere to return home.

Laurence Skelly will seek Tynwald approval for the Locate Isle of Man strategy at this month's sitting.

A marketing budget of around £400,000 has been set aside to promote the Island as an attractive place to live and work.

Mr Skelly believes it could give skilled ex-pat Manx workers a chance to move back.
