New system could succeed MiCards after U-turn extension
Treasury says it is working on a potential payment card system, similar to MiCards, which would eventually replace the scheme.
Towards the end of last year, they'd been due to be withdrawn - a move that prompted significant political pressure, leading government to reverse course and extend their use for a further 12 months.
Ending the scheme had been expected to save around £500,000 a year.
Chris Thomas set out some of the figures during questions in the House of Keys and has committed to bringing new proposals back to Tynwald by May 2026:
DoI to move to monthly dredging in order to protect harbour depth
Oie Voaldyn: 'Our event is not cancelled'
Last chance to enter 2026 Parish Walk
April: 'Warm, dry and sunny' says Met Office
