Council decides to 'scale down' event
Douglas Carnival will be returning this year but with a few significant changes.
Douglas Borough Council members were divided over the decision to run the parade along Loch Promenade only, rather than the full length of the promenade as in previous years.
Andrew Bentley is lead member Regeneration and Community, he thinks scaling-down the event could give it more impact:
Fine for Douglas man repeatedly abused 999 call handlers
Called Emergency Services Joint Control Room five times in an hour
Post Offices looking for 'hosts' in Onchan, Foxdale and Jurby
Services would be provided on a commission basis
Pair to be sentenced next month after homophobic assault
The court heard the complainant was walking on Victoria Street when they got talking to the duo
Oral health of five-year-olds to be assessed this spring
Survey has previously found higher level of tooth decay on Island than in UK
