MHK probes infrastructure minister
It's been revealed the Council of Ministers could influence the Department of Infrastructure's decision on whether to give the go-ahead for an appraisal well to be drilled in search of gas.
Energy firm, Crogga, recently told Manx Radio it was being left with no choice but to return money to investors, as talks between themselves and the government had failed to take place.
Douglas North MHK John Wannenburgh labelled the project as having a 'woeful procrastination', and asked the infrastructure minister whether he intends to give it his approval.
But Chris Thomas stopped short of saying if he was in favour:
