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:
Warning of mass exodus of Manx police officers
Amber weather warning issued for Tuesday
New school planned for Park Road brownfield site
Immigration focus of Positive Action Group meeting tonight
