The Home Affairs Minister and his members are pleased the Island's prison is being delivered on budget and on time.

Martyn Quayle MHK, Tim Crookall MHK and George Waft MLC were visiting to bury a time capsule at the site.

The capsule contained items contributed by the Jurby's primary school and commissioners.

After the ceremony, the party was given a tour around the site to see how work was progressing.
