The chairman of the Manx Utilities Authority intends to introduce a fairer method for its controversial sewerage charge, the so-called "toilet tax".
Michael MHK Alf Cannan gave a statement to Tynwald this afternoon suggesting the tax change from the current flat fee to a "sewage rate".
The proposal states the new charge will be set at 62p in the pound on the rateable value of a property, with the intention of it increasing to 92p the following year.
Mr Cannan says this is the best option available for a bad situation:
