Candidate wants selection process examined
An MHK seeking re-election in September believes the public should have at least some say in choosing the Island's Chief Minister.
Juan Watterson is hoping to keep his seat in the constituency of Rushen, where he's served for ten years.
He's also been Home Affairs Minister since 2011 - and points to his track record of saving money in the Department as part of his election campaign.
Mr Watterson told Manx Radio the appointment process for the nation's leader needs looking at:
Renal patients 'near breaking point' over lack of dialysis facilities in the north
Public Health to expand 'stop nicotine' services and accept referrals from children
Kewaigue Hill closure comes into force this morning
Concern over sharp decline in Atlantic Salmon numbers
