The Isle of Man needs a special drug and alcohol unit, but will have to wait until the funds are found.
That was the straightforward assessment of the situation from Health Minister Eddie Teare, who told Tynwald a treatment unit for those fighting addiction remained a high priority for his department.
The issue was raised by South Douglas MHK Bill Malarkey, who asked for a progress report on the facilty.
Mr Teare says DHSS finances are tight:
Manx Care asks visitors to wear face masks
It's said to help stop the spread of 'severe' respiratory viruses
Thousands can benefit from a satellite visa office, says ex-Douglas councillor
Island residents welcome to the idea
Ronaldsway passengers urged to arrive promptly
Airport says it's expecting a busy day after yesterday's disruption
Work underway to 'get confidence back in the economy'
Chief minister says concern over finances based on 'more sentiment than actual evidence'
