Garff member claims cash saved
Does the Isle of Man really need so many local authorities and elected local representatives?
One commissioner – who’s seeing his board merge with two others – says he doesn’t think so, and more should consider amalgamating.
Robert Moughtin represents newly-created Garff, which was formed from Lonan, Laxey and Maughold Commissioners.
He says the benefits of creating fewer, smaller boards are obvious:

Working hard 'no longer enough to afford to buy a home'
Treasury writes off £340,000 in benefits overpayments in three years
Manxman to return to service following repairs
Discussions ongoing over meningitis B vaccine rollout
Health minister apologises for confusion over ambulance centre funding
