'Changes aren't set in stone'
"Alternate means of funding need to be examined by the Island's Health Service."
That from Garff MHK, Daphne Caine - she insists changes proposed by the Department of Health and Social Care - including increases in prescription fees - aren't set in stone, and the Manx public should have their say.
The concern relates to those on limited incomes, who may struggle to bear additional cost the new plans are likely to incur.
Mrs Caine says there must be other ways to address the deficit:
No public board meeting for Manx Care due to General Election
Chauffeur needed to provide 'professional and discreet service' for VIPs
Fire officer praises 'quick-thinking' staff after blaze at fire station
Chief Minister: 'AG not out to silence debate'
