Chris Brannigan says engagement at party conferences proving useful
Government's Executive Director of External Relations says the level of engagement with the UK Government negates the need for a Manx office in London.
Chris Brannigan has faced questions from a Tynwald committee about whether it would benefit the Isle of Man to have a base in Westminster.
Giving evidence, Mr Brannigan said going out to big occasions, such as party conferences, yielded better results.
And it avoided the substantial cost of an office in England's capital:
Liverpool ferry terminal changed how DoI resources projects
Police appeal after dog injures multiple sheep
Agriculture Census will help 'deepen understanding' of sector
Douglas man banned from the road after drink driving
