Chief Minister Alf Cannan says tax cuts requested by the hospitality industry have to take into account the costs of government services.
In the House of Keys this week he faced questions from Arbory, Malew and Castletown MHK Jason Moorhouse about hospitality after a meeting of the Licensed Victuallers' Assocation.
After that meeting, members called for tax cuts for low earners and a cut in VAT.
Mr Cannan wouldn't promise either:
