	Description:		This Matariki is the third time the annual celebration has been an official public holiday. But while this holiday is safe, the future of other public holidays – and annual leave in general – currently sits with Workplace Relations Minister Brooke van Velden. Van Velden is currently seeking feedback on suggested changes to the Holidays Act, with a draft proposal due in September – but, employee advocates are already sounding the alarm on what the refresh could mean for workers. To discuss these changes with us, as well as her thoughts on public holidays, we’re joined now on The Front Page by Minister Brooke van Velden.
