Boards have branded bill 'scary' and 'inequitable'
The infrastructure minister insists the Island's local authorities were consulted on proposed new laws affecting local government.

One commission claimed the bill would give the Department of Infrastructure powers that could bankrupt some smaller authorities.
Michelle Haywood says what's being put forward shouldn't come as a surprise:
Government 'neglecting' heritage assets across the Island
Motiv8: 'We will never reach all the children on the Isle of Man'
House of Keys question paper dominated by one MHK
Onchan Commissioners to undertake 'accessibility' review of park equipment
