Allowances haven't changed since 2004
The financial support offered by the Department of Health and Social Care to those who have to stay in the UK while attending medical appointments will be reviewed this year.
Health Minister David Ashford confirmed in this week's sitting of the House of Keys that he's asked for the situation to be reassessed, having remained unchanged since 2004.
Currently those who travel off Island for treatment receive up to £28 per person per night towards accommodation, or £41.50 for those staying in London.
Despite it not being included in this year's budget, Mr Ashford admits the situation needs to be looked at:
£41K spent on encouraging people to shop local
Baton of Hope to come back to Isle of Man
CoC 'keen' for continuity of sidecar racing at TT
2026 Manx Grand Prix to begin today
