Could a new procedure for recognising the importance of ePetitions be introduced in the Isle of Man?
That’s what Douglas West MHK Chris Thomas will call for today, as a petition opposing the new so-called ‘toilet tax’ is presented to Tynwald.
Over 6,000 people have signed the online document, calling for government to reverse its decision to introduce a £50 levy.
Mr Thomas will move that the matter is referred to the Standing Orders Committee.
He says people in the Isle of Man are lucky they can have influence:
Two more schemes backed by government fund
Island to get Bikesafe scheme for first time
Jurby Junk's Stella dies aged 90
No plans to publish UK's assisted dying letters
Burst water main disrupts Onchan supply
Government advice following spike in data breaches
Plans for four-foot flood walls at Ramsey harbour
Garage blaze in the early hours of this morning
