Grants will be used to train and equip volunteers
The environment minister hopes grants will enable a local charity to train more people to tackle Japanese knotweed.
Geoffrey Boot was asked to outline what his department is doing to remove the plant from the Isle of Man.
The invasive, fast-growing weed is difficult to eradicate, often taking several years of treatment.
The minister confirmed volunteers working to eliminate knotweed have been given financial support:
