Outgoing Infrastructure Minister David Cretney says he understands why he’s been replaced – marking the end of nearly 18 years as a government minister.
Yesterday it was revealed that the South Douglas MHK would be leaving his position as part of a shakeup of the Council of Ministers.
He says in discussions with the Chief Minister he had made it clear he wouldn’t contest the next General Election and understood Allan Bell needed a mix of experience and new faces.
Rushen MHK Laurence Skelly has taken over as head of the department with immediate effect – he says it’s with some trepidation:
Ramsey Remembrance service to be marked by maroon rockets
MEDS phone line to be down temporarily
Committee to examine link between poverty and poor academic performance
Police advice for trick-or-treaters to stay safe
How will Manx Care reduce the number of negligence claims?
Manx Language Festival to be held next week
Manxman sailings in doubt from tomorrow
