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:
