More than a hundred people attended a public meeting in St John's last night to discuss the dredging of Peel harbour.
Hazardous silt is currently being transferred from the harbour to a site near Poortown quarry.
Infrastructure and Environment Ministers Phil Gawne and Richard Ronan answered questions from Chairman of German Commissioners Matthew Wadsworth as well as a lively audience.
Public opinion was divided when the three-hour meeting was finally called to a close:
