IN a rare show of solidarity on November 10, the Tobago House of Assembly (THA), after a special debate, voted unanimously in support of a private motion to devise strategies to improve the mental health and well-being of men and boys on the island.
The motion, moved by stand-in Minority Leader Keigon Denoon, was deliberated upon during the THA’s first-ever International Men’s Day Debate in the Assembly Legislature, Scarborough.
The debate, an initiative held to commemorate International Men’s Day on November 19, saw young boys and men from across Tobago assume the roles of assemblymen and councillors in what was a lively and enlightening three and a half hour sitting. The stand-in presiding officer was Akeil Andrews.
