Minister says lots of work will continue over the festive period
The cabinet office minister says politicians will still be busy between now and the next sitting of Tynwald.
The House of Keys sat on Tuesday (17 December) for the final time in 2024 with members not meeting again until Tynwald on 21 January.
Some backbenchers were unhappy at the decision not to extend question time given the break between sittings.
But David Ashford says many members will still have lots in their diaries:
Government 'expects fuel pricing to stabilise by middle of week'
Chief Minister to address House of Keys on topic tomorrow
Tanker carrying 4.5 million litres of fuel waiting to dock
Forecourts prepare to replenish stocks as diesel prices rise
Queues at pumps as diesel prices increase across Island
Average of 185.9p per litre - a 50p rise
We aren't the fun police!
