MHK claims CoMin created 'lucrative sideline'
MHKs have questioned how much money government was making from Covid-19 testing during the pandemic.
A Council of Ministers paper, from July last year, shows the Department of Health and Social Care was set to generate £5.4 million from returning travellers paying £50 for PCR tests.
At last week’s Public Accounts Committee Chair Juan Watterson claimed it appeared that CoMin had created a 'lucrative sideline'.
Health Minister David Ashford denied this despite being pressed by fellow committee member Lawrie Hooper:
Safeguarding Board highlights progress on adult protection but warns of gaps in support for vulnerable children
Information Commissioner orders FSA to reconsider FOI response on staffing and pay
Waiting time for driving tests considerably lower in the Isle of Man than UK
Mountain Road closure extended until Thursday
