The operations of the Island's Crisis Team will be questioned by an MHK this week.

Douglas South MHK Claire Christian will quiz Health and Social Care Minister, David Ashford MHK, about the service during the latest sitting of the House of Keys taking place tomorrow.

The Crisis Response and Home Treatment Team (CRHTT) is a 24/7 service Island-wide for anyone experiencing significant deterioration in their mental health.

Mrs Christian wants to know what the target time is to speak to a person in crisis and the target achieved rate.
