An MHK wants the public to have input into a review of the funding of the Island's health service.

Treasury Minister Alfred Cannan gained support at last month's sitting of Tynwald for an independent review into the Department of Health and Social Care's finances.

Lawrie Hooper will ask the Minister if he'll consult on the terms of reference for the review to ensure it's aligned with the public view of how the health service should function.

The review was proposed after the DHSC sought additional funding for a third straight year.

Mr Cannan will respond at next week's sitting of the House of Keys.
