Agenda 9.10.23 - Is the DHSC Manx Care working as planned and why has the Health Minister fallen out with his Consultative Committee?
X Agenda
Thursday, 2 November 2023 - 25 minutes
Manx Care has been in the news lately more for its troubles than successes. One of Manx Care’s board members expressed concern at what our Health Services would become if doesn’t receive a substantial budgetary increase. Questions have been asked about whether indeed the separation of services from the Health Department to Manx Care is working. The Health Minister had a very public spat with his consultative committee and is planning to change their terms of reference in Tynwald next week. The Minister gives his warts and all assessment on Agenda. £20 - £30 million funding gap and Manx Care under fire. Who’d be the Health Minister?
