Registration fee doubles
The rising cost of homestay could deter people from providing the service to visitors during TT and the Festival of Motorcycling.
That's the worry aired by one MHK, after the Economic Development minister's justification in the House of Keys yesterday (Tue) failed to quell concerns.
Douglas North MHK, David Ashford says there'll be inevitable consequences to the increase - which sees the annual registration fee hike from £25 to £50.
Newly appointed operator, MiQuando, pitched the initial idea, which was agreed this month - Mr Ashford doesn't believe it's a well-educated move.
He explains why:
Disruption at Ronaldsway airport following incident with light aircraft
Hopes for better working relationship between government and hospitality sector
'A lot of work to do' on low income housing
Public servants killed in the line of duty eligible for new award
Multi-million pound Villiers development recommended for approval
Rosalind Ranson row draws to a close
