(2) If a public holiday occurs while a Public Service employee is taking extended leave, the amount of extended leave to be deducted is to be reduced by the length of the holiday (one day or half a day, as the case requires).
(3) In subclause (2),
"public holiday" means any special or public holiday for which the Public Service employee is entitled to payment.
If, in the case of a Public Service employee who is not employed in ongoing employment, the period of extended leave to which the employee is entitled under this Schedule exceeds the period for which the employee is employed in the Public Service, the balance of the period of extended leave may be taken during subsequent periods of employment in the Public Service, but only if each subsequent period of employment commences on the termination of a previous period of employment in the Public Service.
