Minister responds to Tynwald queries
The health minister says his department continues to work to mitigate any medicine shortages post-Brexit.
David Ashford was asked about the DHSC's plans during today's extraordinary sitting of Tynwald.
He told the court dealing with shortages already happens because of numerous global issues which can interrupt supplies.
Mr Ashford said if things really got tight after the UK leaves the EU, the pharmacy at Noble's Hospital could be utilised:
Government engaging with UK over international ferry levy plans
Isle of Man won't be affected by July 2026 changes to domestic voyages
Bottleneck car park shut over safety concerns
Council cites increased risk of storm surges as winds shift overnight

Dementia demand assessment underway as Public Health forecasting future need
