DoI boss accuses members of point-scoring
Infrastructure Minister Phil Gawne says while he accepts his department did breach financial regulations, an investigation into the issue has turned into a politically-motivated attack.
This week, Tynwald approved a Public Accounts Committee report and a motion reminding departments of the importance of following the rules.
Mr Gawne says the probe, into the dredging of silt in Peel harbour, missed some evidence because committee members didn’t want to hear it.
And he says he suspects the looming elections may have meant some members were more interested in political point-scoring:
160 patients written to after medical records found in ex-Manx Care employee's home
Children's advocate calls for legislation to protect young people in care
Rate of inflation falls to 3.2%
Diana Parkes receives CBE for services to vulnerable children
Grave designed by Manx artist restored ahead of celebratory event
Whistleblowers 'should never be stifled', says MHK
