The Chief Minister says new plans to outsource a range of social care services are to be expected.
Earlier this week the department confirmed it was looking at ‘externalising’ home care, disability services and resource centres.
Staff were informed of the plans on Thursday and told it was in response to the ongoing Scope of Government review.
The department says no decisions have been finalised and would have to go through the Council of Ministers.
Allan Bell says he’s made it clear difficult decisions have to be made:
Commissioners vote against selling cherished number plate
Armed police detain man
Independent inspection of Manx Care may start next year
Part of TT course to close for a week
New emergency preparedness event after first's success
Still time for seasonal flu jabs, says Manx Care
Firefighters tackle three incidents in one afternoon
