Labour Day holiday in New South Wales, Australian Capital Territory and South Australia
Queen's Birthday holiday in Western Australia
In Australia, we celebrate the Queen's birthday on different days - eg. in Queensland the holiday is observed in June.

Because New South Wales celebrate Labour day, and it just happens to fall on the Monday after the football final So when the BRONCOS team win....the whole of New South Wales can have a day of mourning (really it is closer to a week as no NSW team made the final)
I think the holiday is not all of Australia ..just New South Wales. A.C.T. And South Australia.

truly definite, the organisation is answerable to the interior reach authorities... you should have said as the interior reach collector that very outing of your places of paintings and had it formally and forcibly close down through the state equipment. if in case you've been compelled to paintings on an respectable vacation, then as in preserving with the regulation you should receive double or bonus pay for that day.

i think, they r stunned to see a whole nation observing a holiday on this day since about 30 yrs-- so they wanted to find out why----hence they started observing a holiday on oct 2. hope they will find out this year.
