MHK admits record for completing works on budget isn't good
A political member for the Treasury admits the Government doesn't have a good track record when it comes to completing capital projects on time and on budget.
Tynwald approved an additional £6.5m for the Isle of Man ferry terminal due to be constructed in Liverpool, taking the total to £26.8m.

Farmers could be left 'high and dry' by tariffs response
Will the impending arrival of Wetherspoons to Manx shores impact the local music scene?
