Minister concerned for vulnerable over winter
A new minister has promised to take up concerns about the government's pricing agreement with Manx Gas.
The issue was the dominant theme at Question Time in the Hosue of Keys yesterday (25 Oct).
Without a current chairman of the Office of Fair Trading, DEFA Minister Geoffrey Boot fielded questions from a number of members.
He undertook to go to the OFT to ensure the vulnerable in society will be looked after over the coming winter.
One of those to quiz Mr Boot was Ramsey MHK Dr Alex Allinson.
He says the current charging system of standing rates and tariffs penalises those who are low users:
Bus drivers to hold off taking industrial action while talks continue
Regulation of Health and Social Care Bill pushed back to 2027
Manx patients will be contacted if appointments are impacted by UK strikes
Patient taken to hospital after medical emergency on board Manxman
