The Health Minister says new GP surgeries will be located in the north and west of the Island because of pressing demand in the surrounding communities.
Eddie Teare confirmed during Tynwald they would be built at Jurby and Peel, a move which may prove unpopular with Kirk Michael's residents.

Main road between Peel and Douglas to shut for tree felling
'Targeted and intelligence led approach' to protect Island's borders during Irish sailings
Airport Director role advertised with top salary of £120,000
