Good start for Big Debate - though questions criticised as too vague

by isleofman.com 3rd October 2014
Many of those who attended the first of the government's Big Debate meetings last night (Thurs) felt the questions they were asked were too vague, but on the whole it was a good start.
Around 65 people were at the Centenary Centre in Peel to hear what ministers Chris Robertshaw and Eddie Teare had to say on the future of government and public service provision.
They also had the chance to vote on pre-selected questions on those themes, which was where the issue of vagueness was raised.
These people who attended gave Manx Radio their thoughts after the meeting closed.
Treasury Minister Eddie Teare says organisers will listen to the feedback from tonight's first meeting and adjust things accordingly
