Drop in sessions being held later this month
The woman leading an independent review into the Covid-19 pandemic says she wants to hear about the effect of government decisions on Manx residents.
The public engagement phase of the investigation will start later this month with five meetings held over two days.
Views are sought on border controls, school closures, business support, care homes, policing and Coronavirus testing.
They will take place as follows:
- Wednesday, 29 March 2023: 10.30am to 12pm – Town Hall, Port St Mary
- Wednesday, 29 March 2023: 3.30pm to 5.30pm – Centenary Centre, Peel

Kate Brunner KC has already heard from politicians and public bodies – something that will continue alongside the drive to speak to the public.
The review also wants to hear from people who have left government since the pandemic.
Anyone who has been bereaved is also invited to speak privately with the review team if they wish to do so.
Ms Brunner told Manx Radio the views of the public are of ‘vital importance’ to reviewing government’s response to the pandemic:
New DoI Minister: 'I was surprised to be offered the job'
Staff at sexual health clinic 'constantly battling' to break stigma
Peters: 'I quit DoI because of potential conflict with new minister'
'Thomas the Town Cat' made 'free feline' following ceremony
