A Douglas MHK says she’s surprised at a row between unions and government over moves which could have ended the bus dispute.
Last week unions claimed an offer had been made and withdrawn, despite members being ready to accept it – while the Department of Community, Culture and Leisure insists it was just a discussion document.
South Douglas MHK Kate Beecroft was at a drivers’ meeting where that document was discussed.
She says her impression was that a firm proposal had been tendered by the department:
Amber weather warning issued as strong winds and coastal conditions expected overnight
Hospice funding criticised by UK charity chief amid Isle of Man service cuts
Sailings cancelled as storm brings gale-force winds
Manx Mountain Marathon route diverted over safety concerns amid forecast strong winds
Rushen MHKs to meet with Southern Group Practice over appointment concerns
