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.
PROWL, or Public Rights Of Way around Langness, is in a long-running dispute with television presenter Jeremy Clarkson, who re-routed a footpath which went around his home, to protect his privacy.
PROWL spokesman Ian Costain believes a public inquiry would be the best way forward (audio file attached):
Transport Minister David Anderson will ask Tynwald to support a motion which would enable a public inquiry to go ahead.
