Start with every date in December 2027, keep the Mondays to Fridays, then remove the dates marked “Yes” in the holiday table above. The number you get is the one shown at the top of this page: 23. Dates marked “Regional or sector-specific only” are observed in part of Ireland or in certain industries, so they are listed for reference but not deducted.
