BMA ballot closes today

Doctors considering industrial action over pay dispute

A ballot of doctors on the Island will close later as medics consider industrial action over a pay dispute with Manx Care.

The British Medical Association's vote ends at midday.

The organisation is seeking a 12.6 percent uplift for Manx doctors, but the Island's healthcare provider has previously said it's not close to reaching an agreement.

It's the first time the BMA has held a ballot of this kind on the Island.
