Whereas, We consider it desirable that Wednesday the first day of January in the year 2020 should be a bank holiday in England, Wales and Northern Ireland:

And whereas, to mark, the 75th Anniversary of Victory in Europe Day, it appears to Us that it is inexpedient that Monday the fourth day of May in the year 2020 should be a bank holiday in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and We consider it desirable that Friday the eighth day of May in the year 2020 should be appointed a bank holiday in England, Wales and Northern Ireland in place of it:

And whereas, We consider it desirable that Monday the thirteenth day of July in the year 2020 should be a bank holiday in Northern Ireland:

Now, therefore, We in pursuance of sections 1(2) and 1(3) of the Banking and Financial Dealings Act 1971, do hereby appoint Wednesday the first day of January and Friday the eighth day of May in the year 2020 to be bank holidays in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and appoint Monday the thirteenth day of July in the year 2020 to be a bank holiday in Northern Ireland.

Given at Our Court at Buckingham Palace the tenth day of July in the year of our Lord two thousand and nineteen in the sixty-eighth year of Our Reign.
