Government not planning events for November 13th
Government has no specific plans for World Kindness Day.
The question was asked in Keys this morning by Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse.
The international initiative, held every year on 13th November, was first introduced in 1998 and is observed in many countries including Canada, Japan, Australia and the UK.
Chief Minister Howard Quayle told the House that whilst there were no specific actions planned, that didn't mean he didn't support the idea of treating one another with kindness:
