David Buttery calls for single dedicated agency
A petitioner has told a Tynwald comittee that there is 'no consistency of maintenance' on the Island's footpaths.
David Buttery petitioned on Tynwald Day last year for a new dedicated agency to be set up to manage the walkways.
He told the committee he felt the Department of Infrastructure had too much responsibility already to also oversee the upkeep of footpaths:
Hopes DOI and striking bus drivers could meet
Unite the Union members are about to enter a third round of industrial action
Blocked gullies found to be cause of Castle Street flood
Problems 'not linked to the sewerage system'
'Only a very small number' needing support cashing benefits cheques
Minister confident those yet to cash cheques can access payments
Samantha Barks throws support behind wind turbine petition
'Many of us believe this would permanently change the character of our Island'
