Chief minister apologises in Tynwald
The chief minister admits government wasn't prepared for the cancellation of the Senior Race Day (12 June) bank holiday to go public.
In Tynwald Howard Quayle apologised for the way the decision had been communicated, after it came out via the Tynwald order paper, without an accompanying announcement.
Subsequently, in a move some described as a 'u-turn', a new replacement bank holiday was announced for the 28 August, to create a 'four-day weekend'.
Mr Quayle says the issue could've been handled in a better manner:
Attempted burglary in Ramsey sparks appeal
Two Manx high schools told to stop operating CCTV 'inside' toilets
Port St Mary Commissioners discuss civic amenity site changes
Ramsey residents 'shocked' at Looneys closure announcement
King Gaming's license suspended amidst criminal investigation
Hopes new unit will reduce amount of time patients spend in hospital
