Improvement board now being moved to Manx Care to continue work
More than half of the recommendations made in a bid to improve child and family services on the Isle of Man are yet to be completed.

The outstanding points are said to need further time and consideration of funding, resources and legislative changes to deliver.
The board is now being transitioned from the Department of Health and Social Care to Manx Care – something which Onchan MHK Julie Edge believes needs careful oversight:
Market Square pedestrianisation has 'split' the town says MHK
Police warn of 'ripple effect' of driving under influence of drugs or alcohol
Progression of UK assisted dying bill shows 'convergence of opinion'
Almost 20 bus routes may not operate today
