Only £600m available in accessible reserves
The Isle of Man cannot continue to ‘live beyond its means’.
The treasury minister is preparing to publish the quarterly accounts which show government’s income and expenditure.
The Isle of Man Government has reserves over more than £1.7bn but only £600 million of that is accessible.
Alex Allinson says a number of departments will report overspends; Manx Care’s already forecast a £16.8 million hole.
He told Manx Radio repeated overspending is more of a problem than capital projects which go over budget:
One person treated for smoke inhalation following Anagh Coar flat fire
Community information sessions planned for offshore wind farm proposal
DoI: 'No outstanding issues between airport and Loganair'
Treasury minister hopes to eliminate structural deficit by end of this administration
