Pair appear before scrutiny committee
The health and social care minister has downplayed talk of internal conflict in her department, after media speculation to the contrary.
It was reported last month that tension between Kate Beecroft and the DHSC's chief executive, Malcolm Couch, had led to the resignation of a political member.
An investigation into how that information was 'leaked' has since been launched by the Public Services Commission.
The minister and Dr Couch spent Monday afternoon together giving evidence to a Tynwald committee on various departmental issues.
Mrs Beecroft insists the two of them have a 'healthy rapport' and a stable working relationship:

Plans for 'all-age pathway' for adult autism and ADHD diagnosis by 2029
Some trailers got 'lost' during recent backlog of freight at Heysham
Police told to reassess FOI response
Census support available from next week
Mobile classroom needed to 'alleviate' pressure at Henry Bloom Primary School
