Island confirms FERSA calculations with UK Government
More than £40million will be allocated to the Island's general reserves after the Isle of Man reached an agreement with the UK Government following a VAT survey.
Treasury Minister Alfred Cannan made the announcement during his annual budget speech at Tynwald this morning.
He confirmed the funds will be used for areas such as health and social care, as well as tackling climate change.
The move comes after the calculations from the Final Expenditure Revenue Sharing Agreement were confirmed:
Warning over flare disposal after amenity site fire
Drug-driver jailed after passenger injured in crash
Suspended sentence for 56-year-old in cannabis supply case
Owner of a block of flats fined for failing to meet fire safety regulations
