Tourism Minister Martyn Quayle was quizzed on the abandoned plans to hold extra practice sessions for the TTXGP, in the House of Keys today.
North Douglas MHK John Houghton wanted to know why the decision to close the roads an hour earlier on four days during practice week was taken without consultation with stakeholders.
Mr Quayle insisted that wasn't the case, but Mr Houghton went on to press him on who had advised him in the decision.
Here's an excerpt of what Mr Quayle had to say and the response from the other North Douglas MHK, Bill Henderson:
MGP rider suffered 'neck and chest injuries' following crash in practice
Inquest opens into death of local MGP rider
53 babies born on Island in August
Help give Buddy the best chance of a comfortable future
