Members. Members: Good morning, Mr Speaker. 5 The Speaker: The Chaplain will lead us in prayer. PRAYERS The Chaplain of the House of Keys Leave of absence granted – Questions 1.1-1.5. and 1.10-1.20 held over till next sitting The Speaker: Hon. Members, I have given leave of absence to the Hon. Member for Onchan, Mr Karran, who is indisposed. As a consequence, his Questions will be held over till next week. 1. Questions for Oral Answer ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT 1.6. TT World Series feasibility study 2014 – Publication The Hon. Member for Douglas South (Mrs Beecroft) to ask the Minister for Economic Development: If the Minister will publish the feasibility study into a TT World Series in 2014? 10 The Speaker: Therefore, we turn to Question 6 on the Order Paper. I call on the Hon. Member for Douglas South, Mrs Beecroft. Mrs Beecroft: Thank you, Mr Speaker. Could I ask the Minister for Economic Development if the Minister will publish the feasibility 15 study into the TT World Series in 2014? The Speaker: I call the Minister for Economic Development, Mr Skelly. ________________________________________________________________________ 1015 K133 HOUSE OF KEYS, TUESDAY, 3rd MAY 2016 The Minister for Economic Development (Mr Skelly): Gura mie eu, Loayreyder. A feasibility study into the TT World Series was produced in 2012 and was circulated to Hon. 20 Members in December 2015, together with the details of the changes that had taken place since that work was undertaken, and the TT World Series tender was subsequently undertaken. I would be happy to re-send that information to any Hon. Member if they ask me to do so. As Hon. Members are aware, the TT World Series tender was not progressed and a new tender exercise undertaken for the appointment of a TT Promoter. The recommended 25 appointment of Vision Nine as the TT Promoter was just approved in Tynwald last month. Gura mie eu. The Speaker: Supplementary question, Mrs Beecroft. 30 Mrs Beecroft: Thank you, Mr Speaker, and I thank the Minister for clarifying. Could he tell me if he has any plans to publish it somewhere on the web so that the public can actually read this, or do we need to rely on, for anybody who has questions about it, individual Members forwarding it on to them? 35 The Speaker: Minister to reply. The Minister: Gura mie eu, Loayreyder. Obviously, issuing it to Hon. Members, I am more than happy to publish that publicly. I think it would be very helpful for Members and the public to understand the background to where we 40 obviously arrived just last month in Tynwald. 1.7. Local multiplier effect – Benefits to local businesses and Government The Hon. Member for Douglas North (Mr Peake) to ask the Minister for Economic Development: What steps his Department has taken to promote the benefits of the local multiplier effect to local businesses and Government? The Speaker: Question 7, Hon. Member for Douglas North, Mr Peake. Mr Peake: Thank you, Mr Speaker. I would like to ask the Minister for Economic Development, what steps his Department has 45 taken to promote the benefits of the local multiplier effect to local businesses and Government Departments? The Speaker: I call on the Minister to reply, Mr Skelly. 50 The Minister for Economic Development (Mr Skelly): Gura mie eu, Loayreyder. I would like to thank the Hon. Member for raising this important issue. As Hon. Members may be aware, the local multiplier effect refers to the way in which buying goods locally drives growth through the local economy and consequently to Government income. For example, research cited in DEFA’s Food Strategy has shown that £1 spent in a local 55 business is worth £1.83 to the local economy, compared to 58 pence with a non-local business. The Department is keen to encourage the purchase of local products and services wherever possible, and supports many initiatives in this area. For example, the Department’s Financial Support and Town and Village Centre Regeneration Schemes require those undertaking building ________________________________________________________________________ 1016 K133 HOUSE OF KEYS, TUESDAY, 3rd MAY 2016 work to use local Manx accredited tradesmen wherever possible. Another example is the 60 Department’s Taste scheme and Harvest awards, which also support local produce. In addition, the Department works closely with DEFA to build awareness of the local multiplier effect, particularly in relation to the food and drink sector. DEFA’s Food Matters Strategy recognises the multiplier effect and therefore promotes local sales and import substitution as a means of delivering benefits to the local economy. The Department fully 65 supports this strategy in seeking to grow the economic contribution from this sector and is assisting DEFA on multiple initiatives designed to promote the use of local businesses and clustering to improve performance. In particular, the Department is making available to food and drink production businesses a range of support, such as help to introduce quality standards, marketing and websites for online 70 trading. The Department has worked with the Cabinet Office to highlight to all Departments the potential value of buying from local businesses both for the local economy and the associated Government income. At the same time, there are requirements upon Government to maintain open, transparent 75 and fair procurement processes to ensure best value for the taxpayer. I am pleased to say that I am informed that local suppliers win the large majority of Government contracts.

  • John Shimmin Manifesto to Print.Qxp
    House of Keys General Election Thursday 29 September 2011 John SHIMMIN Douglas West Representing You, Representing Our Island... John Shimmin 15 Devonshire Crescent Douglas, Isle of Man. Dear voter,: It has been my honour to have represented the people of Douglas West for the past fifteen years. Your faith in me has allowed me to amass a level of experience in all aspects of our Government and Parliament which I feel will be invaluable in the times ahead. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your previous support and I only hope that I may serve you again. Throughout my three terms I have always maintained the belief that Government requires team players, capable of working together for the good of our Island. I have now served as the Minister of four important departments and have relished the responsibility, performing competently in all of my roles. It is clear that the next five years will see some of the most challenging and difficult decisions for a generation. Now, more than ever, we require experience and dedication to protect the future stability of our Island. I hope you will find enough in this manifesto to believe that my experience is worthy of your support for the next five years. Yours faithfully, About Me I am a 51 year old Manxman. I live in Devonshire Crescent with my wife, Mo, and two sons, Andrew and Peter. Before entering politics in 1996, I worked as a teacher in Crewe, Tamworth and Merseyside before coming back to the Island to teach at St Ninian's.
