Committee investigates Health overspend

Minister and CEO to give evidence

The Minister and chief executive of the Department of Health and Social Care will face questions on budgetary overspends next week.

Kate Beecroft MHK and Malcom Couch are set to appear before the Public Accounts Committee, as it investigates the department's financial situation.

The DHSC sought extra funds from the Treasury to the tune of £11 million pounds last year.

Members of the public are welcome to attend the committee meeting, held in the Legislative Council Chamber from 2pm on Monday (9 Oct).  

It's chaired by the Speaker of the Keys, Juan Watterson MHK.
