Andrew Gibson hopes to keep improving what's already in the village
The new member of Onchan Commissioners says he wants to give back to the community and use his voice to help support residents.
Andrew Gibson joined the local authority at the beginning of July in an uncontested by-election, which was held due to a resignation in June.
Mr Gibson, who was sworn in at the July meeting, says he has 'detached' himself from some of the personality clashes on the board and will not become a 'puppet'.
He added that he's 'looking forward' to starting his new position of Lead Member for Environmental and Technical Services which encompasses a 'huge' part of the commissioners.
