CM makes statement in the House of Keys
Howard Quayle insists any policy decision regarding anti-money laundering will be made in Tynwald - not Westminster.
He was speaking after recent proposals to impose sections of a UK Bill on the Isle of Man - which could've forced Manx officials create a public beneficial ownership register.
Responding to the matter, Mr Quayle said there is a lot of support for such registers among UK policymakers.
He moved to clarify the Island's position:
Steam Packet urged to be more 'transparent' over Manxman issues
Nature of work keeping boat in dry dock goes unexplained
Government needs to 'break the cycle' of child poverty on Island
Committee report accepted by Tynwald in court's final sitting
Proportion on waiting lists likely higher than England
Manx Care aiming for 95% of patients to be seen within a year
Sixth candidate declares for Glenfaba and Peel
Peel Commissioner and former MHK to contest election
