There was an U-turn in the House of Keys earlier after Community, Culture and Leisure Minister Graham Cregeen admitted he’d got his staff’s wages wrong.
He’d faced questions during the last sitting of the House about bus drivers’ pay – and claimed they earn £37,000 a year.
However, before business got underway in the House of Keys this morning, he asked to address MHKs with a correction.
Speaker of the House Steve Rodan invited him to take the floor:
Business confidence cools as costs climb and demand outlook weakens, survey finds
Rising labour and energy expenses dominate concerns, while optimism around future demand and profitability remains muted
Treasury eyes tougher immigration rules to tackle 'risks' facing system
Higher pay requirements and stricter dependant policies to be reviewed by Council of Ministers
MHKs challenge MiCard scrap after constitutent dissatisfaction
Claims of 'pressure selling' and a political 'scramble' emerge
Neonatal Care Leave 'would have been invaluable to us as a family'
Government is proposing legislation to allow up to 12 weeks of extra parental leave to those eligible
