The tourism minister has hit back at criticism over his department's handling of the zero emissions race for this year's TT.
Martyn Quayle says they did everything they could to include TTxGP's founder Azhar Hussain, who has said he was ditched by the DTL.
An article in Motorcycle News this week quoted DoLGE minister John Shimmin as saying he was surprised and disappointed by the split and thought everyone would've been better off working together.
But Mr Quayle says Mr Hussain was given every opportunity to sign up for TT2010, despite what's being said elsewhere:
Planning application for onshore wind farm still being developed
Motorcyclist suffered fatal chest injuries in crash
Trial for trio accused of producing Class A drugs to Island
Too early for 'direct action' over cost-of-living concerns says chief minister
