David Ashford replaces Chris Thomas in the role
The new chair of the Housing and Communities Board says he intends to 'drive forward' the work of Chris Thomas who held the position previously.
Douglas North MHK David Ashford was appointed to the role this week by the Chief Minister.
The job will see him work with the board and the Housing Division of the Department of Infrastructure to develop proposals for a national housing association.
Mr Ashford says reaction to his return to government has been a 'mixed bag':
Bus drivers to hold off taking industrial action while talks continue
Petrol station to trial bodycams
Regulation of Health and Social Care Bill pushed back to 2027
Manx patients will be contacted if appointments are impacted by UK strikes
