Treasury Minister says cost pressures make forecasting financial position difficult
Cost pressures on government mean Treasury is unlikely to be able to finalise next year's spending plan far in advance of the budget in February.
Treasury Minister Alex Allinson confirmed in Tynwald this week that next year's budget will include an updated tax strategy.
He'll set out the full financial plan for the year ahead during February's sitting of Tynwald.
Dr Allinson says it's difficult to forecast the figures ahead of time:
Minister dismisses rumours wind farm equipment has been purchased
Liverpool ferry terminal work extended
Average wait for GP appointment is 7.4 days
Local Government Amendment Bill 'solving the wrong problem', says Peel Commissioners
