Candidate wants selection process examined
An MHK seeking re-election in September believes the public should have at least some say in choosing the Island's Chief Minister.
Juan Watterson is hoping to keep his seat in the constituency of Rushen, where he's served for ten years.
He's also been Home Affairs Minister since 2011 - and points to his track record of saving money in the Department as part of his election campaign.
Mr Watterson told Manx Radio the appointment process for the nation's leader needs looking at:
Public Health reports increase in flu-like illnesses
Cabinet Office spent more than £92k on North and West Area Plan inquiry last summer
MHK fears former MHK's meat plant role creates 'transparency issue'
Half of Island's public access defibrillators back in use thanks to charity
