In his foreword, Treasury Minister Dr Alex Allinson MHK writes:
‘The last few years have presented a number of economic and social challenges to our Island and its people. The Council of Ministers and Treasury are demanding more focussed attention from Departments to ensure services are delivered within budget and achieve greater efficiency and productivity in the delivery of services.
‘This document contains more detail of the key developments and improvements we will strive to implement in the coming year. They include ensuring that all Departments have a plan in place to manage their budget, deliver efficiencies and necessary cost reductions, and ensure they remain within their expenditure level agreed by Tynwald.’
