Saving on locums and bank: £1.7 million in 2017/18
Locum doctors don't 'rule the roost' at Noble's Hospital - on the contrary, locum and bank spend has been cut by 24.3 per cent in the last year.
That's according to director Mike Quinn in response to comments from workers' union; Unite.
Head of the Isle of Man Branch; Eric Holmes said agency doctors have formed a monopoly there, and are hampering efforts to recruit, and make savings.
Mr Quinn explains why that's a misleading, and a false accusation:
'Too early to tell' what caused fire
Firefighting foam may have killed fish in Silverburn River
Additional road closure for TT filming ahead of MGP qualifying
'Knives and sharp implements' left outside charity shops
