Minister pleads for end to cuts
Home Affairs Minister Bill Malarkey has warned there is 'no fat left to trim' in his department.
He made the comments as part of his response to Treasury Minister Alfred Cannan's budget speech.
Mr Malarkey outlined the cuts which have been made to staff and resource budgets over the last eight years or so.
He then went on to explain why he was pointing this out:
TT rider 'suffered chest injuries in fatal crash'
Community on Island 'praying' as 7.8 earthquake hits Philippines
Workforce size and pay awards make health budget 'difficult to predict'
Overhead MER cables brought down in Laxey
