No special consideration given on sewerage charge

The chairman of the Manx Utility Authority has again reiterated than no-one has been given special consideration with regard to the £50 sewerage charge.

Alf Cannan MHK was asked about the matter by West Douglas MHK Chris Thomas in a House of Keys question which was not reached in the Tuesday sitting, and has been answered in written form instead.

Mr Thomas had wanted to know how many of the 18 requests for special consideration had been granted.

Mr Cannan said that in this financial year it would not consider such requests, and that all properties which receive a rate demand and are connected to a public sewer system would be liable for the full £50 per property charge.
