Political member defends 33% increase to fares
The political member responsible for public transport on the Isle of Man says the cost of school buses is still cheaper here than in the UK.
The Department of Infrastructure today announced a 33% increase to the cost of fares for schoolchildren.
It means a single journey will now cost 40p, up from 30p.
Jason Moorhouse MHK insists it's still good value:
