To clarify, this Monday is ANZAC Day, a commemorative holiday for troops who fought for Australia. Because that's also Easter Monday, the ANZAC Day holiday is moved to Tuesday, despite commemorative services being held on Monday.

Actually the official line is that Easter Monday got moved to Tuesday.

Interesting. Thanks. What did the Catholic Church have to say about that? Is it that Easter Monday is still on Monday, but the holiday is on Tuesday?

Easter is the holiday, and it's on Sunday. I'm pretty sure the Pope doesn't care much what people do the day after Easter (or the day after that).

Ah, thanks. I misread the wikipage, and didn't realise.
