Public Holidays Act came into force on being assented to by His Excellency." The first holidays to be affected by the new statute will be Xmas Day and Ist January next. It is enacted that whenever these days are provided for as holidays in any Act, or in any award or industrial agreement, and they fall on a Sunday, they must be observed on the following day (Monday).
