Health Minister, David Ashford MHK, insists government moved as fast as it could to implement the latest lockdown measures.
The 21-day circuit break, which came into force just after Midnight, was announced yesterday in response to unexplained Covid-19 cases across the Island over the last few days.
When asked about whether the restrictions were brought in quick enough, Mr Ashford stated the Council of Ministers was working into the night on Sunday and into Monday to get the rules drawn up and the legislation in place.
He also stated there's another important factor which had to be considered over how Coronavirus cases can present:
Art anarchists "hiding gold bars" in Douglas this week
No cases of terror financing through charities
You can now adopt an ambulance
Case for horse tram tracks 'under final review'
Council spends more than £1m on beads for cavities
Police recruitment drop-in sessions tonight
Ferry terminal and universal basic income on Keys agenda
Key Ramsey roads to shut for over a week
