Covid Review Chair reacts to comments that it won't uncover the truth

The Chair of the Independent Isle of Man Covid Review has reacted to claims that the review will not be able to uncover the truth.

The comments came from the Island's former medical director Dr Rosalind Ranson, who also branded the review a sham.

Chair of the review Kate Brunner KC said it was regrettable that the author of the letter did not seek to contact her, and find out more about the processes of the review, which are robust and independent.

She described it as being a rigorous and independent investigation which has been given full access to government material, and obtained frank evidence from many current and previous government employees, and members of the public.

The review is now in its final stages.
