HC Deb 27 January 1966 vol 723 c115W
Sir W. Bromley-Davenport

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the fact that experience during 1965 has shown that the public are still not aware of the changed date of the August Bank Holiday, he will take special steps during 1966 to publicise in advance the dates of bank holidays so as to facilitate arrangements in the tourist trade and other trades concerned.

Mr. Mason

I am confident that the bank holiday dates for this year and subsequent years will be sufficiently well-known to the public from Press reports of announcements in the House, from calendars and diaries and from announcements by the B.B.C.
