Supports equality, but has concerns
The Treasury Minister says he's in full support of equal rights, despite voting against the Marriage (Same Sex) Couples Bill in the House of Keys this week.
The Bill got through its second reading in the chamber, however it wasn't uninamously supported by members.
MHKs Chris Robertshaw, John Houghton and Zac Hall joined Eddie Teare in opposing the move.
Mr Teare told Manx Radio he had a number of concerns:
