Tim Johnston addresses his claim that hotels are 'full all season'
The enterprise minister has apologised in Tynwald over a comment he made earlier this year regarding the Island's hotels, describing it as a 'foot in mouth moment'.
During a debate in July's sitting of the court, Tim Johnston said accommodation spots are 'full all season' - a claim which sparked anger from a number of hoteliers.

He'd already issued a written apology, acknowledging that his claim was not accurate.
Addressing the court this week, he says, while many tourist accommodation providers achieve high levels of occupancy, it is the case that many still have spare capacity.
