Brussels: Proposal for 'floating' holiday

Brussels minister Benoit Cerexhe (CdH) proposes to establish a public holiday, which would allow, for example, for Muslims to celebrate the end of Ramadan. Cerexhe is proposing a floating holiday. He explains that there would be nine fixed days and one day which could be chosen based on religious and philosophical convictions. He says this still needs to be discussed with the social partners and in the framework which will soon be launched by the Ministry of Employment and Equal Opportunities.
