Manx Care will not be given a 'blank cheque' for health services on the Isle of Man.
That's the message from the health and social care minister who has welcomed additional money for his department as part of this year's Budget.
£8.25 million has been allocated in 'growth funding' with a further £5 million in contingency to address 'cost pressures'.
