The Treasury Minister says there are encouraging signs of recovery in the Manx economy, but the Island must continue to be wary of outside factors such as the current problems in the Eurozone.
That was the key message from Eddie Teare who appeared before the Tynwald Economic Policy Review Committee with his department's chief financial officer Mark Shimmin on Friday.
Mr Teare told the committee the Island's economy grew by 2.1% in the last financial year and is forecast to grow by 3-5% in 2012/13.
He also said that revenue to the Treasury from income tax and national insurance is higher than expected.
The committee's chairman Leonard Singer MHK was generally encouraged by what he heard:
DoI to change rent-setting model for public sector housingĀ
Candidates could need to declare interests to stand in 2026 General Election
Customs and Excise office to relocate
Douglas man convicted in Island's 'most complex child abuse image investigation'
