Return of health services under the spotlight

The resumption of health services on Island following the Coronavirus pandemic will come under scrutiny next week.

The Social Affairs Policy Review Committee will hear evidence from Health and Social Care Minister, David Ashford MHK, along with other senior DHSC officials on the subject next Monday (July 13).

The panel will also be looking into the provision of mental health services locally - other key figures due to appear include DHSC Interim Chief Executive, Kathryn Magson; Chief Operating Officer, Angela Murray and Acting Head of Mental Health Services, Ross Bailey.

Meanwhile, the evidence gathering session will start at 4pm on the day at Legislative Buildings in Douglas - members of the public are welcome to attend.
