Lawrie Hooper MHK says it needs an overhaul
A Ramsey MHK is renewing calls for a major overhaul of the Island’s rating system.
Lawrie Hooper says introducing an all-Island rate wouldn’t solve the problem, arguing the system itself is broken.
He brought forward reform proposals to Tynwald in July, but they failed to gain support, with government saying the issue should be left to the next administration.
Mr Hooper insists only a full shift to a capital value model will deliver meaningful change:
£41K spent on encouraging people to shop local
DfE says schemes have been 'generally well received'
Baton of Hope to come back to Isle of Man
'Stand Up to Suicide' message continues to be spread
CoC 'keen' for continuity of sidecar racing at TT
Meetings to be held in coming weeks following review
2026 Manx Grand Prix to begin today
Nearly two weeks of action planned for Snaefell Mountain Course
