The health minister has claimed it would be "inappropriate" to speak about the reasons behind the suspension from duty of his department's director of health strategy and performance.
In the House of Keys today, Eddie Teare refused to be drawn on the matter when questioned by Michael MHK David Cannan.
Norman McGregor Edwards has been suspended since January and is the subject of an internal investigation over allegations he sent inappropriate emails.
Mr Teare said things were being dealt with in the usual way:
More services to be temporarily relocated from Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital
Isle of Man population edges upward to 84,975 as migration drives growth
MAIB investigation into fatality aboard Manx registered bulk carrier
