The Minister without a Portfolio has asked for time in his new role before being criticised.
Tim Crookall MHK was removed from the role of Minister for Infrastructure last month in a cabinet reshuffle.
Onchan MHK Julie Edge questioned Mr Crookall in the House of Keys yesterday about his new role of assisting with the £10 million of efficiencies programme.
Mr Crookall replied that he wants time to get use to his new position before facing backlash:
