Chief minister quizzed on healthcare budget in House of Keys
There will be serious and long-term consequences for the Island's finances if spending on healthcare isn't brought under control.
That's from the chief minister after he was asked whether Manx Care can adhere to its budget in this week's sitting of the House of Keys.
Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper accused Alfred Cannan of being unable to answer the 'yes/no' question, but Mr Cannan said there are a number of factors to consider.
He believes it's vital to ensure the overspend is resolved:
IOM aware of 'a small number' of visa holders being stopped at the UK border
Demolition of former Castletown Golf Links Hotel to start
Douglas Council announces 'moderate' rates increase with investment in facilities
Green Lounge gets approval
