MHK Bill Malarkey claimed last week that the planning appeals process is biased unfairly in favour of developers and Government departments.
He maintains that those with deep pockets usually get their own way - often to the detriment of residents who oppose their schemes.
DoLGE Minister John Shimmin (pictured) says the planning system is transparent and open - but that developers are often more familiar with the processes involved:
Douglas man convicted in Island's 'most complex child abuse image investigation'
Police uncovered over 30,000 images on 52-year-old's devices
Temporary lights installed on Douglas promenade
Work taking place to repair damaged concrete near Empress Hotel
The service will end at the end of the year
Changes to religious education 'about religious literacy, not promoting any particular religion'
New bill would remove the need for religious education to be "wholly or mainly Christian"
