Scrapping a government subsidy for waste disposal will mean higher rates, according to a commissioner.
This week, the government announced it could phase out its £5.7 million support for waste disposal over the next six years.
But John Kennaugh of German Commissioners says that’s robbing Peter to pay Paul – with a saving for taxpayers but a hike in bills for ratepayers.
And he says the proposals are something local authorities across the Island will be examining closely:
Police 'actively looking' for drink and drug drivers this Christmas
People urged to make alternative arrangements to get home
Fine for man who had to be restrained by five hospital porters
30-year-old told he'd made 'extremely foolish choices'
Today's Manxman sailings delayed
The Steam Packet Company says it's due to an earlier delay from Heysham
MHK questions if reduction in NSC hours goes against Island Plan
Decision made by management due to reduced demand
