25% reduction to Irish services
The minimum number of sailings between the Isle of Man and Ireland would be reduced by almost a quarter under the new Sea Services Agreement.
The proposed terms are due to be considered at this month's sitting of Tynwald.
Irish services have been reduced from 69 year round to 52 in the summer.
Infrastructure Minister Ray Harmer says the changes focus on quality rather than quantity:
Traders on Michael Street feel 'abandoned' by politicians in tough times
Job Centre unable to reliably identify duplicate vacancies
Airport warns high winds could impact flights
Bus talks to continue over festive season
