Items pose threat to countryside
The Manx Farmers' Union has welcomed a change in the law which bans the release of helium balloons and sky lanterns.
It's in a bid to combat litter, wildfires and the threat the items can pose to wildlife and livestock.
In 2014 the MFU called for them to be made illegal after a cow died from swallowing lantern wire.
Vice President Ean Parsons says they find the items at least once a week:
Revised plans for Lord Street bus station development
Height of premises would be lowered under changes
Consultation for new National Infrastructure Safety Bill
Department of Home Affairs wants public feedback
Steam Packet cancels Friday evening sailings
It is due to adverse weather forecast
"Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital is not at risk of closure"
