But Victoria McLauchlan insisted the taxpayer isn't 'paying twice' in these scenarios:
Isle of Man reviewing self-testing cervical screening kits
Former treasury minister warns against 'emotional' triple lock decision
Egg Gate: Police appeal for help after 'recent spout of egging'
Beach Buddies maintaining momentum after 20 years
