A bill on the right of regions to extend the May holidays has been submitted to the Duma. Deputies of the New People party submitted a bill to the lower house of parliament that gives governors the right to extend the May holidays, writes RBC. The document was published in the State Duma’s electronic database. The authors were State Duma Vice President, ex-presidential candidate Vladislav Davankov and deputy Alexander Demin. According to the explanatory note, the bill allows regional leaders, based on the results of the referendum, to postpone part of the days off provided for the New Year holidays to other days in May. This will take into account the opinions of local residents, as well as businesses, and will not entail economic costs in other regions. The authors, in particular, refer to the results of a survey by the Public Opinion Foundation for 2023, according to which 55 percent of respondents support moving the New Year’s weekend to the May holidays. In January, two thirds of Russians stay at home because of the cold, and the hot May can be spent outside the home. “This will lead to an increase in domestic tourism and will contribute to the development of small businesses: restaurants, hotels and tourism,” the authors emphasize. In 2024, the New Year holidays will last from December 30, 2023 to January 8, 2024. The May weekend will last from April 28 to May 1 and from May 9 to 12.
