Chief minister says concern over finances based on 'more sentiment than actual evidence'
The chief minister says he's working with the treasury and enterprise ministers to get confidence back in the economy.
Concerns were raised about the Island's finances in Tynwald this month, but Alfred Cannan insists that was based on 'more sentiment than actual evidence'.
He admits data on economic issues is too slow in being published.
Mr Cannan told Manx Radio next year's budget will look to stimulate the economy:
Working hard 'no longer enough to afford to buy a home'
Treasury writes off £340,000 in benefits overpayments in three years
Manxman to return to service following repairs
Discussions ongoing over meningitis B vaccine rollout
Health minister apologises for confusion over ambulance centre funding
