Government departments urged to 'innovate'
A senior government minister says it's time the Island faced up to 'uncomfortable truths' about the economy, rather than blaming the data.
Questions have been raised in recent weeks about the way the Cabinet Office collects and distributes information, after a reported 'cliff edge' drop in visitor numbers.
A review into research methods has been launched.
Policy and Reform Minister Chris Thomas says the public should not be concerned about similar studies, such as the census or inflation figures - which have also painted a worrying picture in recent years.
He's calling on government departments to innovate instead of taking issue:
More than 3,000 jobs added to economy since September 2021
Review of income thresholds for public sector housing
Firearms officers deployed to incident near Laxey
A step into the modern era for social security
Attempted burglary in Ramsey sparks appeal
Two Manx high schools told to stop operating CCTV 'inside' toilets
