MHK quit over Manx Gas regulatory deal
The former vice-chairman of the Office of Fair Trading says he hopes the Island will get some new competition laws soon.
Chris Thomas MHK was speaking after Tynwald questions yesterday, when a voluntary regulatory agreement between the government and Manx Gas was discussed during questions.
Mr Thomas resigned from the OFT over the deal, and says the Island needs a regulator with teeth to take companies to task when needed.
But he says new laws to spur competition and punish anti-competitive behaviour have been put back by the government:
Assisted Dying Bill mover pleased as Jersey becomes first place in British Isles to legalise assisted deaths
Public warned of increased risk of wildfires
Alfred Cannan to stand in General Election
Charity hosts stroke awareness event in Peel
