Would EU referendum effect the Isle of Man?
Publication Date: Thu, 23 Jan 2014
UK plans to have an EU referendum by 2017 could have an effect on the Island's trade relationship with the continent.
That's according to the Economic Development Minister - who says his department will continue to keep alert to any new developments.
The debate came after the UK's Labour party pointed to a tougher approach to the EU - calling for change to prevent EU citizens travelling to Britain in search of a job.
John Shimmin says the Island is independent in its approach, but is watching the situation very carefully:
