Gas just one concern - Callister
A public protest over gas prices in the Island is due to be staged in Douglas this lunchtime - and campaigners have been invited to put their case to the Office of Fair Trading.
Ahead of that, an MHK is suggesting the wider operation of utility companies in the Isle of Man should be looked at.
Onchan member Rob Callister has taken a close interest in the controversial banding system for Manx Gas standing charges.
He says the agreement which limits the company's profit-over-costs to 9.9% - in place until the end of 2018 - is the key issue.
Mr Callister says the protesters have a point, but there's a much bigger picture:

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
