Hon Dr Alex Allinson MHK, Treasury Minister, with Afzal Khan MP, Shadow Minister for Exports

The Treasury Minister Dr Alex Allinson MHK led an Isle of Man delegation to the Labour Party Conference in Liverpool this week.

The Minister said: “As attention begins to shift to a UK general election, it is vital that we work to better understand the policy direction of the Labour Party, especially in keys areas such as tax, financial crime and renewable energy.

“Attending Conference is also an opportunity to strengthen existing relationships with Labour and build new ones, whilst setting out the Isle of Man’s ambitions for the future and highlighting the positive contribution our Island makes to the UK and further afield.”

The delegation held discussions with Shabana Mahmood MP, the Shadow Secretary of State for Justice, which was particularly productive and reassuring around Labour Party tax policy development and its approach to future engagement with the Isle of Man.
