Government budget cuts may mean fewer investigations in future
Home Affairs Minister Juan Watterson says cutbacks are limiting the amount of work police can do to tackle drug dealers.
In Tynwald this week he faced questions on the topic from Onchan MHK Peter Karran who said he was concerned falling budgets would mean fewer investigations.
Mr Watterson says his department has been affected by cuts along with the rest of government.
But he says despite the problems, officers are still hard at work fighting the drug trade here:

Balthane Roundabout plans on hold until 2027/28 as costs rise
Port St Mary lifeboat launched to rescue stricken fishing vessel
Enquiries ongoing after 'shotgun-like sound' heard near Police Headquarters
