Chris Stockport says he doesn't want or expect to finish the year with forecast £19.2m deficit
Manx Care's CEO says a forecast £19.2 million deficit will only happen if the organisation does nothing to address it.
Earlier this week, figures from the healthcare provider showed a £10.8million deficit across the first six months of the period, with a further £8.4million expected before April 2027.
But Manx Care insists it's strengthened its financial controls and is taking strong action to reduce the rate of spending.
