Minister Ashford responds to members' concerns
The health minister says criticism for his department and its finances in today's sitting of Tynwald (Tues 19) came as no surprise.
David Ashford requested an extra four million pounds to the department's budget.
Several members took to the floor to voice their concerns, including Jane Poole Wilson MLC who said there's evidence the money given to the department could be better spent; and also Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper who asked for more clarification about the budgeting process.
Despite these concerns, the extra funds were approved unanimously in the court.
