Skelly adamant over ministerial future

Offers apology for role in affair

The minister at the centre of the Vision Nine scandal insists he's staying at the helm.

Tynwald agreed to a set of recommendations aimed at preventing similar failures, as it received a damning report on the failed TT promotion deal from the Economic Policy Review Committee.

Committee chairman Michael Coleman scathingly linked the deal, which collapsed in 2016, to the sinking of the Titanic.

But Laurence Skelly - who's now apologised for his role - says he's more like Captain Quilliam.
