Chief Minister Alfred Cannan said: “We have a huge amount of work to do in the weeks and months ahead but also in the longer term as we seek to deliver a secure, vibrant and sustainable future for our Island. 

"I have sought to shape a ministerial team that I believe can deliver on this long term vision for the people of the Isle of Man.”

"I have consulted with members of Tynwald in recent days listening to their views, ideas and suggestions.  I want to draw on the collective will of every member of Tynwald and work together to improve the lives of the people of our Island community.

“There are a number of immediate challenges we face, such as energy pricing and the COVID-19 pandemic as we enter the winter months.  But we must also focus on the longer term. 

"With my Tynwald colleagues we have already started work on developing a five year Island Plan to deliver a better future for all.”
