Motion for Manx Care Committee Withdrawn

Health Minister Claire Christian has withdrawn her motion calling for a committee to explore the relationship between DHSC and Manx Care

It has been expected to be moved today.

However, having reached that part of the order paper, President Laurence Skelly revealed it would not be moved.

The motion, which due to when it was submitted would have required members’ support to be moved, would have seen the creation of a five members committee.

That proposed committee would have reviewed and taken evidence on the governance framework, division of responsibilities and statutory relationship between the Department of Health and Social Care and Manx Care, with Terms of Reference to be approved by Tynwald by June 2025.

It also should have covered parts 1 and 4 of the October 2024 Tynwald resolution on Health Service Reform, with a view to strengthening political representation and accountability in support of the delivery of health and care services on island.
