This is a self-check calculation of the sourced base period, not a final filing instruction. New South Wales public and bank holidays are not bundled. Section 36 can move the last day to the first following non-weekend, non-holiday day. Check the current Court registry calendar before applying that rollover. Check the cited rule, the correct factual branch, every order and any electronic-filing cut-off.
