Proposed Ramsey (Boundary Extension) Order 2023

Ramsey Town Commissioners have made an application to the Department of Infrastructure for an Order under Section 6 of the Local Government Act 1985 seeking to extend by Order, the boundary of the town of Ramsey Town. The Order provides for the adjustment of the boundaries between the districts of Ramsey, Lezayre and Garff (Maughold Ward) so as to remove various areas from Lezayre and Garff and to include within Ramsey’s boundary. 

As part of the process for considering the application, legislation requires that a Public Inquiry be held. This will give stakeholders and interested parties an opportunity to comment on the proposals.

Consultation is now closed. A Public Inquiry took place at the Ramsey Park Hotel on the 22,23 and 24 January 2024.

The Department received a final report from the Chairman of the Public Inquiry, Mr Peter Taylor. The Department have accepted the findings. Please find a copy of the Chairman's report below:
