The home affairs minister has called for more people to take an interest in the Drug and Alcohol Strategy and offer their input, if they aren't happy with how it's being run.
Speaking live on Manx Radio from the strategy's open day at the Hilton Hotel, Martyn Quayle said people often didn't take advantage when given the chance to air their views on the subject.
He said just a few months ago his department, via strategy co-ordinator Margaret O'Reilly, held a number of exhibitions around the Island which were poorly attended:
Main road between Peel and Douglas to shut for tree felling
'Targeted and intelligence led approach' to protect Island's borders during Irish sailings
Airport Director role advertised with top salary of £120,000
Traders on Michael Street feel 'abandoned' by politicians in tough times
