The Chief Minister says there's "a degree of urgency" to decide on the future of the Liverpool landing stage - and he's not ruling out government taking ownership.
It came as a reply to a Keys question this morning from Onchan MHK Peter Karran.

He said the talks have been amicable so far, but with the current agreement due to run out in around 18 month's time, its important to get some clarity on the issue.
He put forward an alternative to Graham Cregeen's suggestion that the Steam Packet could take ownership:
