Treasury Minister Anne Craine's statement in Tynwald on the latest reduction in VAT revenue for the Isle of Man was immediately followed by a debate on the subject.
That came after members supported Michael MHK David Cannan's contention that it was a matter of urgent public importance, which demanded immediate consideration by the parliament.
Beth Espey followed the debate for Manx Radio:
New grading system will 'drastically reduce' police exposure to indecent images
It's hoped change will also speed up prosecutions
Call for referendum on wind farm proposal garners hundreds of signatures
Concerns over bird safety, blade recyclability and Island scenery fuel calls for a public vote
'Several incidents' of littering, damage and graffiti reported on Port Erin beach
Broken glass found in the sand described as 'particularly dangerous'
Poor weather stopped GNAAS responding to four Manx emergencies in the last year
Storms Darragh and Éowyn among those to blame
