Council leader backs their introduction
Douglas Borough Council has defended its decision to charge for disabled parking spaces.
The council took over control of Chester Street and Drumgold Street car parks last week.
Many people voiced displeasure when it was announced price hikes at the sites would also apply to disabled badge holders - who previously used the facilities free of charge.
But Council Leader David Christian says some of the things being said are completely untrue:
