MHK to question infrastructure minister
An Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK says he hopes the Department of Infrastructure will consider postponing the planned changes to airport parking.
A year-long trial will come into force on 1 May, which will see free disc parking reduced to 15 minutes and increases of up to 84 per cent in the cost of some stays.
Jason Moorhouse will quiz the infrastructure minister in Tynwald today (25 April).
He says it's of particular concern to his constituents:
