Rise proposal to go before Tynwald this month
The Liberal Vannin Party is demanding the government better protects people against rising utility costs.
Later this month, Manx Utilities Authority Chairman Alfred Cannan MHK will put the case to Tynwald to approve a 50% increase in the sewerage charge.
Lib Van Spokesperson for Finance Lawrie Hooper says the government should adopt an across-the-board approach:
Yellow weather warning for gale force winds
Travel disruption likely
Island offers consumer fuel protection advice
Price of oil rises steeply due to conflict in Middle East
Ballabeg man declares intention to stand in 2026 General Election
Mark Firth hopes to secure a seat in Arbory, Castletown and Malew
Government 'might not be targeting the right people' to move to the Island, says MHK
Ann Corlett discusses plans for population growth and the need to close 'loopholes' in the system
