DHSC to ask Treasury for an extra £30 million to balance books
Despite making savings this financial year, Manx Care still hasn't been able to combat its overspending.
That's according to the health and social care minister, as his department is set to ask Treasury for an extra £30 million to balance its books.
It's one of four departments to do so, with a total of nearly £50 million being requested.
