Gov't working with Attorney General to put drilling regulations in place
The infrastructure minister insists his department has 'communicated greatly' with Crogga over drilling regulations in the past months, despite the organisation saying talks had failed to take place.
It comes after the energy firm announced they were handing money back to investors, saying the project had stalled.
Douglas North MHK David Ashford previously urged the Department of Infrastructure to come to the table and work out a solution.
Speaking on Manx Radio Breakfast, Chris Thomas said he thinks face to face discussions aren't always the right approach:
Police dealing with 'serious incident' in Ramsey
Consultation open on plans to formally recognise the heritage of Douglas Head
Drop-in session to support Isle of Man charities
Fundraiser to keep St John Ambulance emergency fleet on the road
