Flybe uncertainty - health CEO confirms contingency plans
The interim CEO of the health department says there are other options being explored for patient transfer services, given the uncertain future of the current provider, Flybe.
The airline is experiencing financial difficulties, and is reportedly seeking up to £100million of support from the UK Government, on top of a similar amount of tax deferral on passenger duty.
Kathryn Magson was asked about the patient transfer service it provides, by the Social Affairs Policy Review Committee:
