M E M O R A N D U M TO: ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT MANAGER FROM: MARKETING SERVICES MANAGER RE: 2018 IPSWICH SHOW HOLIDAY

INTRODUCTION: This is a report by the Marketing Services Manager dated 18 July 2017 concerning the date for the 2018 Ipswich Show Holiday. BACKGROUND: Council received a letter dated 15 June 2017 from the President of the Ipswich Show Society, Marcia Cruickshank, requesting Council to request gazettal of Friday 18 May for the Ipswich Annual Show public holiday to be held in 2018. Following a decision on the matter, Council will make application to the Office of Industrial Relations to have the holiday gazetted. PREVIOUS HISTORY: • From 2000 to 2010 Council accepted the recommendation of the Ipswich Show Society

and the Ipswich Show public holiday was held on the Thursday. During this time Council has received no serious complaints or adverse media coverage regarding the date.

• In 2011 Council accepted the recommendation of the Ipswich Show Society for the holiday to be held on a Thursday. Subsequently, Council was advised by Qld Education that State NAPLAN testing would be undertaken on that day and the request for holiday would be denied. Following a repeal of Council decision, a new recommendation was received for the holiday to be held on the Friday. The Friday was consequently gazetted as the 2011 holiday.

• From 2012 to 2017 Council has accepted the recommendation of the Ipswich Show Society for the holiday to be held on the Friday in week 20. These shows were very successful and were widely accepted by local businesses and the community.
