People who miss hospital appointments could in future be charged for not turning up.
Director of Health Strategy and Performance Norman McGregor Edwards (pictured) says it was an idea raised at the DHSS's recent series of public meetings and will be considered as a solution by the department.
He says it's the percentage missed isn't enormous but still needs to be dealt with somehow:
'Too early to tell' what caused fire
Crews from across the Island ensured cover was available
Firefighting foam may have killed fish in Silverburn River
People advised not to enter the water for 28 days
Additional road closure for TT filming ahead of MGP qualifying
Sunday morning closure along Quarterbridge and Peel Road
'Knives and sharp implements' left outside charity shops
Fly tipping warning from police after instances outside Crossroads
