Tech company a 'helpful mediator' with suppliers during lockdown
The Education, Sport and Culture Minister has thanked technology company Strix for helping to bring PPE to the Island during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Stock is currently being held at the NSC, and was ordered in from China with the help of Strix's connections in the country.
Dr Alex Allinson said the company was "very helpful in mediating with producers".
