Politicians to consider possible alternatives
A future system of funding nursing and residential care in the Island might not suit everyone.

Chris Thomas will present a report to Tynwald this month, outlining alternative models for paying for care.
It suggests commissioning a more detailed investigation of a mixed model system, like the on used in Jersey.
Mr Thomas says whichever solution is chosen will be a compromise.
