Immigrants face NHS surcharge in future

Tynwald has unanimously approved extending the UK's Immigration Health Charge to the Island. 

It will mean people applying for visas will have to pay a fee to contribute towards NHS services to access them. 

The surcharge is part of the UK's 2014 Immigration Act. 

Previously, migrants to the Island had been exempt from paying it.
