Australia ACT Family Day Public Holiday Update

Sources: School of Journalism at the University of Canberra (ACT) and Australia bank holidays and public holidays (qppstudio.net). This year, the Australian "state" of ACT (Australian Capital Territory) will have had 11 public holidays, one more than any other jurisdiction in Australia, and three more than the neighbouring State of NSW (New South Wales), re-igniting the debate as to whether to keep the recently added Family and Community Day public holiday and if so, whether to move its observance.
