BY THE QUEEN A PROCLAMATION APPOINTING THURSDAY 2ND JUNE 2022 IN PLACE OF MONDAY 30TH MAY 2022 AND FRIDAY 3RD JUNE 2022 AS BANK HOLIDAYS IN ENGLAND, WALES AND NORTHERN IRELAND ELIZABETH R.
Whereas, to mark the Seventieth Anniversary of Our Accession to the Throne, it appears to Us that it is inexpedient that Monday the thirtieth day of May in the year 2022 should be a bank holiday in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and We consider it desirable that Thursday the second day of June in the year 2022 should be appointed a bank holiday in place of it, and that Friday the third day of June in the year 2022 should be appointed a bank holiday in England, Wales and 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 Thursday the second day of June in the year 2022, in place of Monday the thirtieth day of May in the year 2022, and Friday the third day of June in the year 2022 to be bank holidays in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Given at Our Court at Windsor Castle the eleventh day of November in the year of our Lord two thousand and twenty in the sixty-ninth year of Our Reign.
GOD SAVE THE QUEEN
