Holiday Time

Next week all four Houses will take a break. Both of the Westminster Houses went into recess yesterday. This break is known as the 'Whitsun Recess'. The House of Representatives will have the 'Memorial Day District Work Period' and the Senate will also observe that holiday and take the week off - though as any of the Members and staff of all Houses will know, the work doesn't stop.

The Washminster blog will appear less frequently next week .
