Efforts to remove the Health Minister from his position have failed.
David Anderson survived a vote of no confidence after a lengthy sitting of Tynwald.
Last night Tynwald Members spent over three hours debating a motion put forward by Rushen MHK Laurence Skelly.
He wanted to see Mr Anderson sacked from his ministerial role after serious concerns were raised about the state of the Island’s health service.
However Mr Skelly’s motion failed to carry.
He received nine votes of support in the House of Keys – with 15 against - and no support from the Legislative Council with all nine members voting against.
It's a decision he says he expected:
Framework of new Sea Services Agreement ready, says minister
Attorney General says he's stepping down
Road closures in two towns for running event this week
Six weekend ferry crossings could face disruption
President of Tynwald announces retirement
Police close Mountain road
Fuel firm says "fingers crossed" for calmer energy costs
Ring doorbells will need data protection registration - but shouldn't cost you money
