Chief Minister welcomes fresh debate on economic issues

The Chief Minister believes unanimous support in Tynwald for a motion about the Island's economy is a good sign.

Michael MHK Alf Cannan asked for politicicans to back a move for clearer economic growth policies from teh government.

Mr Cannan is concerned that they've not been properly addressed to meet the Island's changing financial circumstances.

His motion led to a lengthy debate and this is being welcomed by Chief Minister Allan Bell.

Mr Bell is happy it was backed by all members but says it just underpins what he is already trying to do.[play media file below]
