Does the Steam Packet Company need to be regulated?

MHK says regulation would provide additional level of protection for users

Tynwald will be asked to consider whether the Communications and Utilities Regulatory Authority could act as a regulator for the Steam Packet Company.

Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse will seek support for CURA to assess the possibility of regulating the government-owned ferry operator when Tynwald sits in January.

Mr Moorhouse's motion says this would provide an additional level of protection for users.

CURA currently regulates a range of services, including mobile networks, gas tariffs and TV and radio.
