Residents will have the chance to quiz the Treasury Minister on this years budget later this month.

Alf Cannan MHK is expected to deliver the 2021 budget to Tynwald next Tuesday (February 16) and the following Monday (February 22) he'll answer questions on the matter at a Q&A event hosted by the Public Action Group (PAG).

PAG says the event is free with anyone welcome to attend and is an opportunity for people to have their say.

It'll take place at the Manx Legion Club on Market Hill in Douglas on February 22 from 7.30pm.
