Rate for food and attractions to drop to 5% next week
The 5% VAT rate on food and attractions will be a welcome boost for the "suffering" hospitality industry.
That's according to Enterprise Minister Laurence Skelly.
The Isle of Man Government confirmed it will reduce the rate from next Wednesday until 12 January next year in line with an announcement by UK Chancellor Rishi Sunak earlier this week.
Despite the impact on the Island's income, Mr Skelly says it's a much needed step:
Peel Road closed to traffic coming out of Douglas
It's due to a road traffic collision near the Brown Bobby
Preston man banned from the Island for five years
Mohammed Enayet convicted for breaching immigration laws
Commissioner can't investigate health complaint
Not all internal avenues have been exhaustedÂ
Still a 'huge stigma' preventing men opening up about mental health
Calls for more investment to prevent people reaching crisis point
