Teresa Cope gives evidence to Tynwald Public Accounts Committee
Manx Care's chief executive says she felt 'undermined' by politicians over plans to cut some of its services.
The healthcare provider had issued an embargoed press release on 15 January outlining the 'urgent measures', but has told a Tynwald committee that the Department of Health and Social Care asked to delay its publication.
Last week, Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper shared the document to his social media pages.
Teresa Cope has been giving evidence to the Public Accounts Committee today (Wednesday 5 February).
She says it's not how she'd have chosen to communicate the cuts to services:
