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:
Majority of whistleblowing cases against DOI relate to health and safety concerns
A total of nine claims have been raised since April 2024
Disruption for motorists in Kewaigue area from Monday
MUA upgrading the wastewater works in the area
Man who sexually assaulted sleeping woman jailed
Karl Wicklow was convicted at trial for two counts of indecent assault on the same date
2025 a 'record year' for SPC
More than 680,000 passengers were transported on its vessels
