Brunnschweiler asking gov to extend VAT cut to drinks
The boss of Bushys is calling on the Manx Government to help pubs that don't serve meals.
VAT on food served in hospitality was cut from 20% to 5% earlier this week.
Martin Brunnschweiler would like to see this also being applied to alcoholic drinks served in pubs and restaurants to give the sector a real boost.
He believes some businesses face hard times and tough choices unless support continues:
Castletown Commissioners says 'good links' with new ministers important
Tony Brown says a 'better understanding' of what local authorities do is needed
Work on Ronaldsway solar EV charging hub progressing
Manx Utilities says scheme will help meet demand for more public charging facilities
Main road to close for four evenings
Buses will be guided through closure
Island pupils recognised for being 'good citizens'
Rotary Star Awards for 140 youngsters
