MHK reiterates comments about Island's reserves
A Douglas North MHK says he 'stands by' comments he made warning of a potential financial crisis.
Speaking on Tynwald Hill, David Ashford thinks the coming year will be 'crucial' for the Island and be a deciding factor in its direction of travel.
This years Budget saw Treasury Minister Alex Allinson announce significant use of the Islands reserves - something he insists is necessary to prevent austerity.
Mr Ashford is optimistic nonetheless:
Officers and partner agencies praised following immigration fraud conviction
Work to improve mooring at Ferry Terminal in Liverpool scheduled for next week
Manx Care reports major drop in dental waiting lists
Police 'disappointed' to find more than half of vehicles with defects in latest winter checks
