Insurance including full medical cover will be an absolute necessity for travel between the Isle of Man and the United Kingdom, from April.
That has become clear, following confirmation this week the Reciprocal Health Agreement between the two jurisdictions will end on March 31.
Issues now on the table include who will provide that insurance and what will it cost?

Assisted dying bill receiving 'due attention it deserves' in UK
Faulty device believed to have triggered multi-agency search effort
Payroll firm reprimanded after thousands of personal records discovered in abandoned shredding bins
Finish line in sight for Atlantic rowers
