The pressure group which is fighting to have footpaths at Langness restored to public use is welcoming the proposed public inquiry into the issue, which will be the subject of a motion in Tynwald next month.

Transport Minister David Anderson will ask Tynwald to support a motion which would enable a public inquiry to go ahead.
