This year's Budget was largely inherited from the last administration.
That's the admission from the Treasury Minister who says plans for spending in government departments were already in place.
Alf Cannan gave evidence to the Public Accounts Committee yesterday - two weeks after his financial plan was agreed unanimously by Tynwald.
He told the committee the new-look administration will have more input in future:
Repairs on Peel Power Station to get underway
Manx Care doctor survey to be discussed by Tynwald
Weather warning for snow tonight
MHK queries safety at primary school in Ballabeg
Gales put two ferry sailings at risk tonight
Should the Island throw a birthday party for Barry Gibb?
Warning issued over icy roads
High ground could see 4 inches of snow on Saturday night
