Quayle insists change needed at top
The chief minister says a review of the Island's health service, particularly spending within it, is urgently needed.
There's set to be a debate, and a call for a review, at the January sitting of Tynwald next week (16 January).
At the same sitting, there will be a request for an additional £9.5 million to cover the overspend in health - that's despite the department already having had its budget boosted by £11 million at the start of the current financial year.
Chief Minister Howard Quayle says he knows 'all too well' the financial pressures the DHSC is under year after year:
Amber weather warning issued as strong winds and coastal conditions expected overnight
Hospice funding criticised by UK charity chief amid Isle of Man service cuts
Sailings cancelled as storm brings gale-force winds
Manx Mountain Marathon route diverted over safety concerns amid forecast strong winds
