Garff member claims cash saved
Does the Isle of Man really need so many local authorities and elected local representatives?
One commissioner – who’s seeing his board merge with two others – says he doesn’t think so, and more should consider amalgamating.
Robert Moughtin represents newly-created Garff, which was formed from Lonan, Laxey and Maughold Commissioners.
He says the benefits of creating fewer, smaller boards are obvious:
Chief minister to give fuel rise and bus strike updates in House of Keys
Plus statement from health minister on Hospice funding
Visitors give tourism levy idea the thumbs down
Tynwald to be asked to receive report outlining pros and cons of visitor tax
Final reading for bill aiming to "modernise, streamline and strengthen the Island’s Criminal Justice System"
LegCo asked to reform court treatment of 17-year-olds
Fuel retailer says there's no need to stockpile diesel
One forecourt ran out of diesel just three hours after it was confirmed it had restocked
