Treasury minister's first one in just under a fortnight
The Treasury minister has refused to be drawn on the nature of his first Manx budget, which will be delivered in just under a fortnight's time.

Live on Mandate on Wednesday morning, he was asked by Tim Glover if that was the approach he would be taking, now he was in control of the purse strings:
MWT plans to plant almost 10,000 trees
Duck off: Chinese takeaway on the hunt for bigger ducks
