Queen's Pier debate continues

The Chairman of the working party looking into the future of the Queen's Pier says a decision on the structure could be made in the near future.

Phil Gawne was responding to claims by the Vice Chair of the Friends of Queen's Pier, Michael Tramontana, that the people of the Isle of Man are being "taken for a ride" over the future of the structure.

Whilst sympathising with his position, Mr Gawne says progress IS being made:
