"Changes" needed to Government says Chief Minister

Tue, 17 May 2022


The Chief Minister says the unfair dismissal of the Isle of Man's former Chief Medical Director has damaged confidence in the Manx Government.

Alfred Cannan delivered a statement in Tynwald earlier regarding the sacking of Dr Rosalind Ranson.

He said: "The recent judgement determined by the Employment Tribunal in favour of Dr Rosalind Ranson has made uncomfortable reading for many people and has regrettably not reflected well on the professionalism of our public service."

"We need to make changes to Government. Structural changes, Cultural Changes and organisational changes because we cannot retain the status quo. And we need to do it now to ensure that the public are getting the best possible outcomes and delivery. I recognise of course that so many public servants do so much to deliver the very best in public service but there have been too many issues over too many years to feel comfortable. We must all now take 5 responsibility. Change will not happen overnight, but start and move with urgency."
