Income tax and travel to be questioned in HOK

Income tax, the Ben-my-Chree and bus fares will be discussed in the House of Keys this morning.

Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse will ask the Chief Minister on what dates the Council of Ministers was advised, or updated, on the recently announced income tax increases.

The infrastructure minister will be asked by Douglas East MHK Joney Faragher what precipitated the bus fare rise for school children; how this fits into his plans to increase use of public transport; and when he will consider a trial to measure the impact of implementing free travel.

The sitting starts at 10am.

You can listen live here.
