As per the aforementioned Executive Order, the public holiday of Monday, July 30, 2012, will begin at 12:00 noon, while the public holiday of Tuesday, July 31, 2012, will be a full-day non-working public holiday for all sectors of the Haitian economy (jours fériés et chômés pour les services publics, les écoles, le commerce et l’industrie).
