Commissioner sceptical about government consultations
A Castletown commissioner believes government has jumped the gun when it comes to regulations about swimming pool charges.
Jerry Ludford-Brooks wants to know why alterations were approved before the results of a review were known.
At tonight's (1 August) board meeting he will seek support from his colleagues to write a letter to the Chief Minister.
Mr Ludford-Brooks wants Alfred Cannan to consider introducing an all-Island swimming pool charge.
Meanwhile Mr Ludford-Brooks believes many consultations are worded so government gets the answers it wants, rather than a true reflection of what the public actually thinks.
Mr Ludford-Brooks is sceptical about the education minister's promise that everyone will have their say in the swimming pool review:

Creamery managing director to leave role
Fast-tracked legislation was designed to close 'loophole of expanding problem'
Farmers 'feeling the squeeze' more than ever says MNFU
Too soon to say if Finnish TT rider will have permanent vision problems
MLC given leave to introduce bill to tackle gazumping and gazundering
