Spring is fully established across the country by 13 October 2030, with milder days and longer evenings standard in every state during October. The financial year's second quarter, October to December, begins alongside this seasonal shift, three months out from the 30 June financial year close.
A public holiday that falls on a Sunday sits inside the weekend rather than beside it, and whether a substitute day off applies to the following Monday depends on the specific holiday and the state. Sunday 13 October 2030 falls on this day of the week, at the close of the weekend, immediately before the working week resumes.
Contracts and legal deadlines that specify calendar days count every day from 13 October 2030 including weekends and public holidays, while deadlines specified in working or business days count only the days this page includes in its working-day total. The difference between the two conventions can shift a deadline by several days once weekends and holidays are counted.
