Hospice chief exec says relaxation needed
Changes to the Island's work permit system are a result of an increasing need for qualified healthcare staff, according to Hospice Chief Executive Margaret Simpson.
From October 1, nurses, midwives and social workers who are not Isle of Man workers will no longer need to acquire a permit.
Mrs Simpson says in recent years recruiting qualified workers has become more difficult.
She says it's due to a number of reasons:
Damaged crossings to be replaced
MLC reiterates calls for milestone payments for new parents
What have your MHKs promised you? Douglas Central
Aldi or Lidl on the way?
