67 unemployed - a rate of 1.1 per cent
Unemployment in the north is highest in the Island - a problem in need of government attention.
That's according to Douglas North MHK, David Ashford - who says September statistics show there's 67 people unemployed there, compared to 42 in the south, 23 in the west, and 206 in the east.
In terms of percentage per head of population, that equates to around 1.1 per cent - Mr Ashford says that's unacceptable.
He believes a fresh approach is needed to boost opportunities in the North:
Tynwald to consider Assisted Dying Bill amendments in June
Douglas Council seeks permission for building compound on Ballanard Road playing field
DoI has 'really big' issues to address at Island's airport
Ramsey MHK Alex Allinson won't be seeking re-election
