The health sector is seeking an additional £10million
The Health and Social Care minister says more money is needed for Manx Care in the next Budget.
Lawrie Hooper told Manx Radio, it was not acceptable for him to go back and request more funds from Tynwald each year.
Earlier this week, the health sector said it would be seeking an additional £10 million.
The minister will request the funding next month.
He says the extra money will pay for rising drug costs as a result of Covid-19, Brexit and staffing issues, among others:
'Power of veto' might help get difficult decisions through, says chief minister
Gas prices to remain unchanged for 2026
Ramsey Commissioners not adding 'optional' one percent increase to social housing rents
New gynaecology clinic room will 'significantly increase capacity'
