The salary of the Isle of Man's top civil servant could be substantially increased, if the post is re-evaluated.

Will Greenhow was this week appointed to succeed Mary Williams in the top job, which comes with a salary range between ?110,000 and ?137,000.
Backbench MHK Peter Karran says a re-evaluation might have seen the salary frozen or even reduced, but Mr Houghton believes quite the reverse is the case:
