Callister explains why only a one-year deal is on offer
Talks between Manx Radio and TT organisers, over a contract to provide commentary for this year's TT and Festival of Motorcycling, are set to continue later this week.
The Department for Enterprise announced an agreement in principle had been reached between the parties on Monday evening, ahead of a question on the matter in the House of Keys the following day.
Political member in the department with responsibility for the TT and motorsport, Rob Callister, says a one-year deal is the only available offer - due to political circumstances:
Golf course fire was organised burn that became 'uncontrolled'
Jail for man who stole nearly £70k from Western Civic Amenity Site
"Halfway Horse Tram" not the only problem on the prom, says council leader
Emergency services tackle fire at Peel Golf Course
Report calls for Visit Isle of Man to be established as a statutory tourism board
