An End To Public Holidays?
The Editorial in today's Independent Financial Review cites the influence of David Farrar and Jim Donovan and essentially takes up Jim's proposal to abolish public holidays and give employees 10 extra days of leave which they can take when they want to, as opposed to the current situation where stat holidays are fixed. Well done Jim and David.
