The Health Minister has agreed to review the appointment system in the blood clinic at Noble's Hospital.

David Anderson said the system, which was brought in last year, will be looked at.

North Douglas MHK John Houghton has been critical of the new arrangements, and has called for the previous drop-in system to be reinstated.
