The Chief Minister says he has no plans to have a ministerial reshuffle for the time being.

Allan Bell was answering a question in the House of Keys this morning from East Douglas MHK Brenda Cannell.

Mrs Cannell made allegations over the conduct of one minister.

She asked Mr Bell if "he is quite satisfied for a Minister to go around educational establishments using inappropriate language."

that he is quite satisfied for a
Minister to go around educational establishments using inappropriate language?

Mr Cannell claims it's a serious matter and says professional people working within a department have made complaints about the behaviour of their Minister..

She didn't go as far as naming the minister in question.

Mr Bell says he is  happy with his cabinet line-up at the moment and isn't planning to make changes.

He didn't rule out making adjustments in the future.
