Former health minister queries chief minister's claims
The former Health Minister Lawrie Hooper has exchanged heated words with the chief minister regarding Manx Care's finances in this morning sitting of the House of Keys.
The Ramsey MHK, who resigned from the Council of Ministers earlier this month in a row over healthcare funding, says the health body made clear the financial risks it's facing.
Alfred Cannan, who's currently acting health minister, has previously said Manx Care must come in on budget this year.
Mr Hooper asked how Mr Cannan could claim in Tynwald that "finances were not a major risk" outlined by the Manx Care Board:
Warning over flare disposal after amenity site fire
Drug-driver jailed after passenger injured in crash
Suspended sentence for 56-year-old in cannabis supply case
Owner of a block of flats fined for failing to meet fire safety regulations
