The government won't be doing anything to mark World Kindness Day.

That's according to the Chief Minister - who answered a query on the matter from Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse in the House of Keys this week.

Howard Quayle revealed there are no specific actions planned by government for the day - which falls on Tuesday, November 13.

However, the Minister did say he supports 'treating one another with kindness' and 'acting with kindness and compassion should be supported and celebrated'.
