Rob Callister says price hike wasn't included in budget
An MHK has criticised the Department of Infrastructure for introducing a price rise that wasn't included in the budget.
Onchan member Rob Callister raised the issue of the recent increase to school bus fares at this morning's sitting of the House of Keys.
Minister Ray Harmer insists fares are heavily subsidised by government and more children may now walk or cycle to school.
However, Mr Callister says this doesn't explain why the increase was so suddenly brought in earlier this month:
Broadband provider's licensed revoked by CURA
Restaurant worker in £85k incapacity benefit fraud
People urged to share their thoughts on Island's Mental Health Service
Manx Care interim operations director to leave next month
Almost 38,000 passengers used ferry services to travel to Island during TT
