Lawrie Hooper advocates zero-based budgeting
An MHK has expressed his hopes for departmental funding reform in tomorrow's budget.
Ramsey member Lawrie Hooper claims the current system - where all departments are allocated an annual budget based on their previous expenditure - encourages a wasteful attitude to finances.
He's advocating a transition to zero-based or priority budgeting, in order to avoid so-called 'silo' thinking by ministers.
Mr Hooper says attitudes need to change:
Manx matchmaker supporting people 'frustrated' with online dating
"People in their 70s and 80s are still very sexually active"
Toilet changes at QEII 'well received'
DESC says changes were made to increase comfort and reduce vandalism
Date confirmed for funeral of Sam Naughton
Isle of Man rider died following incident at this year's Manx Grand Prix
Buddy has first of two 'much-needed' surgeries
ManxSPCA thanks public 'for helping make this possible'
