Cannan content with additional four months
Extending the time a Manx company has to search the Island's territorial waters for oil and gas will allow government to make a 'balanced' decision.

The company had requested 18 months.
Alfred Cannan says the extension will also allow government to consider its wider policy on offshore energy production:
