Will new £7.2m facility stop travel for treatment?
How many mental health patients forced to travel to the UK for treatment will be repatriated once the new £7.2 million facility is complete?
That's the question that'll be pitched at Health and Social Care boss Kate Beecroft by Speaker of the House of Keys, Juan Watterson today in Tynwald.
He's also asking what categories the provision will cater for to limit the number of patients in need of making long journeys - which can be expensive.
Mr Watterson says acute mental health conditions are traumatic enough:
Fundraiser for TT rider Maria Costello surpasses £220k
Warmer than average May for Island
Manx BirdLife awarded funding for new warden
Increased DfE support 'to tackle rising costs and global pressures'
Police appeal after two motorcycles involved in collision
