Members wants issues to be considered by DEFA
Traffic issues and additional litter must be considered when allowing fast food outlets to open branches on the Isle of Man.
That's the view of an MHK, who's raising a number of concerns on the subject at this month's sitting of Tynwald.
Middle MHK Bill Shimmins' queries follow plans by KFC and Starbucks to open outlets near to McDonald's on Peel Road in Douglas.
He insists these matters can't be ignored:
