Health and Social Care Minister Kate Beecroft says she didn't decide to change the Island's patient transfer contractor.
In Tynwald this week she faced questions about the move to end the contract with Bridgewater Cars and take on ComCabs Liverpool - the taxi company will take Island patients to hospital appointments in the UK.
Mrs Beecroft said the tender process had begun before she became Minister and had been decided through the government's procurement process.
She told the court the decision hadn't been the subject of any departmental meetings:
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
