"Progress being made", says Ashford
The health department is in talks with a number of potential independent regulators.
Minister David Ashford told the House of Keys this week progress on the matter was being made.
The process to appoint a formal off-Island regulator for health and social care services was launched more than a year ago.
Although a shortlist of providers has been drawn up, the minister insisted his department was 'not yet in a position to consider policy options'.
Speaking earlier this year, Mr Ashford said any regulator must be the right fit:
Funding of government services 'not sustainable'
