That's according to Treasury Minister Eddie Teare who was speaking in the House of Keys this morning in answer to a question from North Douglas MHK John Houghton.
However, Mr Teare said the Department of Social Care was currently undertaking a review of housing support, including assessing options which would help first time buyers purchase a home.
