Where can savings be made after overspend?
The Health Minister has been taken to task about her department's multi-million pound overspend.
Kate Beecroft and chief executive Malcolm Couch spent more than two-and-a-half hours giving oral evidence this afternoon (Monday) to Tynwald’s public accounts committee.
The £11.1 million overspend centres largely on Noble's Hospital and prompted Mrs Beecroft earlier this year to say the department needs to be more ‘financially prudent’.
During the session, the pair were frequently pressed on where savings were being made.
Mrs Beecroft told Manx Radio it's never easy identifying where efficiencies can be brought in:
'A lot of work to do' on low income housing
Public servants killed in the line of duty eligible for new award
Multi-million pound Villiers development recommended for approval
IoM 'must use voice on international stage'
Rosalind Ranson row draws to a close
'Not appropriate' for gov't to help individuals in struggling hospitality sector
