A rapid review of bed capacity at Noble's hospital was to reassure the public, according to the Health Minister.
Claire Christian faced questions about the reasons behind the review in the House of Keys this week from Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse.
She said measures were already in place which were intended to ease bed pressures.
Ms Christian went on to talk more about why the review was commissioned:
