Three unions have balloted members over industrial action
An MHK has questioned whether Graham Cregeen 'has understood' the dispute with teaching unions 'at all'.
Julie Edge tabled an emergency question for the education minister in Tynwald this week, asking him to make a statement on the ongoing negotiations.
What followed was a 25-minute discussion of the issue in parliament, with various supplementary questions for the minister who has, for the most part, remained tight-lipped throughout the dispute.
Speaking after the sitting, Ms Edge wasn't confident in what she heard:
Loganair to remove Saturday service to Birmingham
Southern Pool board welcomes assurances over site's future
Looneys of Ramsey to close
Future of Belfast flights 'precarious' due to low passenger numbers
Ministers to meet with LVA to discuss hospitality concerns
Fine for Douglas man caught with cocaine in car park
