Believes building will remain safe even in private sector
The Chief Minister says government needs to get value for money for the tax payer from unwanted properties.
Howard Quayle was responding to the news old Castletown Police station was being offered for sale on the open market.
MNH trustees had considered that a transfer within Government to Manx National Heritage would allow the Trust to care for the building and find a new use and purpose for it.
However, Treasury rejected their proposals, as it wanted a significant financial payment for the building, which MNH was unable to meet without using their charitable reserves - something they were unwilling to do.
However, Mr Quayle says he believes the Baillie Scott building - which is registered - will be protected even if is privately owned.
