PUBLIC HOLIDAYS

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (14:53): I have a supplementary question. Can the minister clarify, when he says 'change the date back', is the date currently still set in May, which is my understanding, or has it in fact technically moved to March? Will the government have to officially move the date of the Adelaide Cup holiday to March at some time in the near future?

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (14:53): If we are to keep this on a permanent basis for March we will have to change the date in the Holidays Act.
