Treasury Minister Alex Allinson says the Island's immigration service is busier than ever - and the increased demand looks to be permanent.
In the House of Keys yesterday, he faced questions from Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse about immigration applications.
Mr Allinson said since Brexit, there's been a fivefold increase in the number of people applying for visas, with 4,451 applications last year alone.
And he said immigration officers are dealing with hundreds of applications:
13 arrested in drink-drive campaign
Laxey road shut until January
Former Motor Museum goes on the market
No Onchan Park plan, say commissioners
Laxey campsite to get campervan improvements
Local authority: don't suffer in silence at Xmas
Government reminder over salt bins
Weather warning in place for high tides
