Local charity calls for Tynwald to act
The founder of an environmental group is keen for Tynwald to take preventative measures against plastic pollution.
Bill Dale believes a small, refundable deposit on bottles would reduce the amount littered across the Island.
He says plastic makes up around half the litter Beach Buddies clears off the coastline each year.
Mr Dale is now calling for action:
Michelle Mone-linked PPE firm liquidated and unlikely to repay £148m
Judge Sebastian Prentis placed the company into liquidation
Yellow weather warning for coastal overtopping
Water and debris likely to impact coastal routes around high tide
Proposed new laws would support homeless people on the Isle of Man
Government seeks feedback on introducing new legislation
DESC chief officer to retire in 2026
Graham Kinrade has been in charge of the department since 2020
