Pupil safety 'wasn't compromised' in storms
The Education Minister insists young people's safety is the 'number one priority' when deciding to close schools in bad weather.
Concerns were raised last week when sites around the Island remained open despite being battered by Storm Ophelia.
There were no reported incidents, and pupils got home before the worst of the weather - but the Buchan, King William's College and a number of business premises all shut early.
Mr Cregeen reassured colleagues in the House of Keys earlier that decisions to close schools are never taken lightly:
Broadband provider's licensed revoked by CURA
Restaurant worker in £85k incapacity benefit fraud
People urged to share their thoughts on Island's Mental Health Service
Manx Care interim operations director to leave next month
Almost 38,000 passengers used ferry services to travel to Island during TT
