Charity cries foul over DHSC probe

A charity's accused the Department of Health and Social Care of trying to interfere in a Tynwald investigation after a row over evidence it has submitted.

Safe Strong Secure collected evidence from families for a probe into children's services, but says after some information leaked onto social media DHSC chief executive Malcolm Couch asked it to withdraw a letter and apologise.

Tamasin Wedgwood from Safe Strong Secure says she refused, and wants to know why the department doesn't want some issues to be brought up.

She remains defiant over the letter:

3FM has contacted the Department of Health and Social Care, which has declined to comment.
