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.
Whilst a backbencher, Michael MHK Alfred Cannan called for the budget to be priority-based, so funds could be allocated where they were most needed.
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:
TT rider 'suffered chest injuries in fatal crash'
Community on Island 'praying' as 7.8 earthquake hits Philippines
Workforce size and pay awards make health budget 'difficult to predict'
Overhead MER cables brought down in Laxey
