Douglas South MHK Kate Beecroft has resigned as health minister.
She stepped down yesterday, after 14 months in the role.
Chief Minister Howard Quayle says she resigned after meeting him yesterday.
She's the third politician to leave the department since 2016 -departmental members Rob Callister and Claire Bettison resigned their roles last year.
Mr Quayle says a new minister will be appointed soon.
