The Department of Infrastructure has confirmed local authorities won’t receive any money for climate change projects.
It says the Treasury decided financial support from the Climate Change Fund should be for ‘preparatory’ work including feasibility reports and de-carbonisation strategies.
Ramsey Commissioners asked for funding to buy an electric refuse wagon and LED street lights and were turned down.
DOI Chief Officer Emily Curphey says until Treasury and DEFA finalise terms of reference, there’s nothing the department can do:
17 Bus services could be cancelled today
Public debate to explore plans for Manx economic growth
Grants available for Christian churches
Motorcycle club want to hear from potential MGP newcomers
Entries open for Poetry Trail
Reservoir project behind schedule
Women in business celebrated at Isle of Man’s Elevate You Awards
