Hooper says talks around matter already underway
Incentives to attract more healthworkers to work on the Isle of Man could be better, the health minister has admitted.
Lawrie Hooper was responding to comments made by the chair of his own Liberal Vannin party.
Paul Weatherall stated the UK is under similar health pressures to here, but more people were being trained there to deal with demand.
Mr Hooper says talks around the issue have already started:
Government engaging with UK over international ferry levy plans
Isle of Man won't be affected by July 2026 changes to domestic voyages
Bottleneck car park shut over safety concerns
Council cites increased risk of storm surges as winds shift overnight
Forecasters warn of snow over higher ground later
Higher routes such as Mountain Road could be affected by slight accumulations
Dementia demand assessment underway as Public Health forecasting future need
Figures suggest Island prevalence of 0.7 percent, as government acknowledges demand likely to rise due to aging population
