MHK Questions Funding for Footpaths & Green Lanes

A Douglas South MHK has asked the Infrastructure Minister to clarify how much new funding has been allocated to improve the network of public paths and green lanes.

In a written question to Tim Crookall, Sarah Maltby MHK requested details of the uplift in revenue funding secured in the 2026 Budget following recommendations from the Footpaths, Bridleways and Green Lanes Working Group Report.

Ms Maltby also asked whether the related capital allocation in the Budget is a one-year sum or funding that has been committed annually for five years.

The question is due to be answered by March 17.
