DoI to pay out over silt damages
Some berth owners will be given government compensation, after silt buildup in Peel Marina stopped some vessels mooring.
Infrastructure Minister Ray Harmer says it 'will be costly' to reduce rates for those who own a berth, but it's something the Department 'must do'.
It follows news that a deposit of silt in the outer harbour will be dredged in the next month.
Mr Harmer outlined the plan:
Police 'respect' death by dangerous driving acquittal
Constabulary asks for privacy of family to be respected
Bank to withdraw three ATMs
There has been a series of ATMs withdrawn across the Island in recent years
Long closed pub could have a future
It was bought by government in 2007
