Time to take back control says Minister
Tynwald has embarked on a debate over the nationalisation of the IOM Steam Packet Company.
The Treasury Minister will ask the court to approve the £124.3 million purchase along with a series of other recommendations related to the acquisition.
In his opening remarks Alfred Cannan asked the court why should a strategic national asset be held by a Portuguese bank.
He says it’s time to take back control.
