The Government of Australia's State of Tasmania is considering allowing a day off work when ANZAC Day falls on a Sunday. This, in line with a recent principle agreement at the Federal level stating that all states should seek to harmonise their treatment of public holidays that fall on a Sunday.
Currently, all Australian states, apart from Victoria and Tasmania, give a Monday day in lieu when the ANZAC Day public holiday falls on a Sunday.
Western Australia and the ACT, in addition, also give a Monday day in lieu when the ANZAC Day public holiday falls on a Saturday.
