But enterprise minister says no
This year’s Senior Race Day bank holiday will not be moved back to its original date.
That’s despite suggestion that having two bank holiday weekends – one in June and one in August - would be more beneficial to the local economy.
Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse raised the issue in the House of Keys.
The four day ‘Super Manx’ bank holiday weekend will start on Friday 27 August.
He says the decision to move the holiday was made when the Classic TT and Manx Grand Prix were still expected to go ahead:
Search launched after emergency beacon signal activated
Fuel costs 'likely to rise' amid Middle East conflict
Ramsey Commissioners redacted information 'without justification' in FoI response
Death of MGP competitor deemed accidental by inquest
