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:
