MHK says management not to blame
The operating model of the Steam Packet Company does not benefit Island tourism, an MHK is claiming.
Chris Robertshaw believes that is one of many aspects which need addressing as part of an over-arching assessment following a sharp decline in visitor numbers.
The latest passenger survey shows a drop of 8.9 per cent in 2017, the lowest here for a quarter of a century.
East Douglas member Mr Robertshaw says while the structure sucks much profit off-Island, Steam Packet management is not to blame.
