Setbacks to projects 'absolutely' affected public perception says Crookall
Some mindsets in the Department of Infrastructure need to change to improve public confidence according to the minister.
Tim Crookall's comments came after he admitted some of the Manx public had 'lost faith' in the Liverpool ferry terminal project.
Tynwald will be asked to approve an extra £32million for the project this month - it will take the overall cost to just over £70.68million.
The landing stage is not due to be finished until 'the middle of 2023'.
Mr Crookall was asked if things like this affect the perception of his department as a whole:
VAT reduction on electricity extended
Some EU deliveries suspended 'until further notice'
Manx actress to return to West End in April
No word from Barclays over Island job losses in global cost cutting move
