Focus on alternatives, says Faragher
An MHK is to seek Tynwald support at its June sitting for a motion opposing plans to extract gas from Manx territorial waters.
Douglas East member, Joney Faragher says the Isle of Man should focus its attention on renewable energy alternatives.
She believes extracting gas wouldn't make economic sense and would be contrary to the Island's declared green agenda:
'No guarantee there'll be any support' amid ongoing fuel crisis
Chief minister says the situation is being constantly monitored
Fuel crisis support needed now, says MHK
Ramsey member says Manx public already feeling the pinch
1.5% electricity price increase comes into force
Manx Utilities estimates price rise will mean customers pay an extra £14 per year
Tourist tax would be 'wrong move at the wrong time', says Douglas hotelier
General manager of Welbeck Hotel says idea should be dismissed
