Government says it won't take a one size fits all approach
Government is "moving in the right direction with means testing" - that from the Liberal Vannin Party.
LibVan has positively responded to the public consultation; saying it identifies potentially reasonable, consistent, and cost-effective ways of introducing it here.
Member, Ramsey MHK, Lawrie Hooper, says the party is largely in agreement with the document in principle - with minor suggestions for improvement.
The Cabinet Office wants Treasury to be given responsibility for testing, which it insists won't take a 'one size fits all' approach.
Mr Hooper says it appears to be taking a common sense route to a fairer system:
Chief minister to give fuel rise and bus strike updates in House of Keys
Visitors give tourism levy idea the thumbs down
Final reading for bill aiming to "modernise, streamline and strengthen the Island’s Criminal Justice System"
Fuel retailer says there's no need to stockpile diesel
Diesel price increases 'could put some taxi drivers out of business'
