Government budget cuts may mean fewer investigations in future
Home Affairs Minister Juan Watterson says cutbacks are limiting the amount of work police can do to tackle drug dealers.
In Tynwald this week he faced questions on the topic from Onchan MHK Peter Karran who said he was concerned falling budgets would mean fewer investigations.
Mr Watterson says his department has been affected by cuts along with the rest of government.
But he says despite the problems, officers are still hard at work fighting the drug trade here:
Police 'actively looking' for drink and drug drivers this Christmas
Fine for man who had to be restrained by five hospital porters
Today's Manxman sailings delayed
MHK questions if reduction in NSC hours goes against Island Plan
