Southern Swimming Pool recommended to close at end of March

Decision said to have been made purely on "financial grounds"

A recommendation has been made to close the Southern Swimming Pool at the end of March.

Manx Radio has seen a letter citing an outcome of a meeting between the board, the education minister and her chief executive.

It claims that, in February's sitting of Tynwald, Julie Edge will recommend the total closure of the pool - a decision said to have been made purely on "financial grounds".

The decision will be subject to Tynwald approval.
