SCORES of students protested outside Tynwald against the proposed introduction of tuition fees.
The island’s polticians had been due to vote on the proposal at this month’s sitting but that has been put back a month.
The Council of Ministers is understood to have been worried it would lose the vote.
The proposal would mean that most undergraduates would have to pay a minimum of £2,500 a year towards their higher education.
English students have to pay a maximum of £9,000.
