Health Minister David Anderson signing the new RHA last month
A Rushen MHK is calling for Tynwald to look into the handling of the Reciprocal Health Agreement negotiations.
Quintin Gill will table a motion asking for a committee to look into how the agreement with the UK was brokered.
The new agreement came into force on October 1st.
Originally the agreement was to end in March, but the UK Government was persuaded to change its mind and extend the arrangement, before a long term deal was put in place.
Mr Gill's motion will go before this month's sitting of Tynwald
