Alfred Cannan expects it by Christmas
The review of the chief secretary's role is approaching its conclusion.
Chief Minister Alfred Cannan committed to examining the remit of the position several months ago after several senior officers left their posts.
It followed an industrial tribunal which found a top medic was unfairly sacked for whistleblowing.
Mr Cannan expects decisons to be announced in the near future:
King Orry statue plans given the go-ahead after appeal dismissed
Plans for sculpture adjacent to Tynwald Hill given green light
Administrative error leads to Andreas rates demand for wrong amount
The treasury minister has apologised for the error
Investigation underway after man dies in Barregarrow crossroads collision
The incident happened shortly before 6pm yesterday
