Garff Commissioners are “working hard” in conjunction with their Health & Safety Consultant (Pegasus Consulting Ltd) to adapt their Business Continuity Plan in response to the situation with the Corona Virus otherwise known as Covid-19.
Hopefully, its implementation will not be necessary.
The virus is having an influence worldwide and may pose a risk on Isle of Man.
The principal aim of the adapted Business Continuity Plan is to ensure that critical services such as refuse collection are maintained in the event of a wider outbreak of the corona virus on Island.
The Commissioners believe that we should be calm and proportionate in our response, but the Plan being developed is in place if circumstances change. It will be designed to ensure that robust measures are in place to secure delivery of key services in the Sheading.
