Decisions on whether Translana will be funded by the Manx Government will have to be made by the new-look Tynwald.
That's the message from ex-Health and Social Care Minister Howard Quayle - he's no longer in charge of the department after being elected as Chief Minister:
The decision not to fund the drug - which can help sufferers who have Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy - has caused outcry on the Island.
The family of a seven-year-old with the condition say they'll have to move to the UK if they can't access it.
Mr Quayle says it was a 'horrible position' to be in but the decision could be reversed in the future:
Peel Prom closure rescheduled for autumn
Quest to find the Island's best sausage bap!
Warning over fake bank website
Commissioners warn dog fouling could mean fine
Appeal for witnesses after fatal crash at Hillberry
Government refers itself to Info Commissioner over election data breach
MHK brands government's £1 million for AI office 'insane'
