MHK calls out 'unfairness' in mechanism
A Manx politician says there can be no more delays reforming the Island's 'unfair' rates system.
Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper will ask the Policy and Reform Minister Chris Thomas for an update on the situation in the House of Keys next week (24 April).
A full report on so-called rates 'modernisation' was tabled for October last year in the Programme for Government, but has yet to materialise.
According to Mr Hooper, it's time rates were judged on more than just the size of a property:
Hospital bed occupancy exceeds 90% in multiple years as pressure builds at Noble's
Interim report into death on Manx registered bulk carrier
Police respond to social media concerns about 'suspicious' man
Douglas City Council proposes city centre initiatives including sculpture and markets
Cash boost for psycho-oncology service
