Minister responds to Solly call
The Isle of Man is not going bust - far from it!
That's the response of Treasury Minister Alf Cannan to a local newspaper's front page story, where former assessor of tax Mark Solly makes the claim.
Mr Solly also calls for full-scale reform and a fairer tax system.
Alf Cannan says the Manx economy is performing better than expected, but that he agrees with one point raised in the article:
