The chief minister says government has taken no action to introduce laws to prevent industrial action in schools.
Alfred Cannan was criticised by the Isle of Man's Trade Union Council for comments he made regarding the NASUWT teaching union during an interview last month:
He was quizzed over the comments in Tynwald but insists he wasn't talking about preventing strike action:

However, as it stands, its members are due to undertake two days of strike action next month.
