A political member in the Department of Infrastructure has dismissed criticism of the Island’s planning system from the Chief Minister.
Last week, Allan Bell MHK said the whole procedure needed revamping to make sure it protects the Manx economy.

And he says Mr Bell’s outburst was little more than a tantrum:
Manxman won't return to service until end of September
Steam Packet says the situation is hugely disappointing
Onchan Commissioners won't be commenting on assault allegations
Social media post claims it happened following public meeting
Steam Packet urged to be more 'transparent' over Manxman issues
Nature of work keeping boat in dry dock goes unexplained
Government needs to 'break the cycle' of child poverty on Island
