The Treasury Minister says his department will carry on for now without a third political member, following yesterday's (Friday) sacking of Bill Henderson.
Eddie Teare told Manx Radio the North Douglas MHK had gone back on a guarantee he would vote in favour of the introduction of tuition fees, which represented a 'breach of trust'.
Mr Henderson says he offered support, not a guarantee, and maintains he ultimately had to go with his election pledge to oppose such a proposal.
Ed Oldham asked Mr Teare what impact this had had on Treasury, so close to next month's budget:
'Come back to the table,' says DOI minister
Consultation seeks feedback on changes to IOM first time buyer schemes
Yellow weather warning for coastal overtopping
'Privilege to represent Island at British-Irish Council', says chief minister
