NEWS FROM THE CELTIC LEAGUE

The First Minister of Scotland will visit the Isle of Man next month as an official guest of the Manx Government.

Alex Salmond will give a talk as part of the Chief Ministers (CM) Lecture and the Isle of Man CM, Allan Bell, has said the visit will provide an opportunity for those attending the lecture to question the First Minister about his vision for an Independent Scotland.

Alan Bell says the Island needs to be aware that an independent Scotland will also be a key player for some of the business the Isle of Man currently attracts.
