+    Alaveteli needs to know about <strong>public holidays</strong> because
+    they affect the calculation that determines when a
+    <a href="#response" class="glossary__link">response</a> is overdue.
+    Public holidays are different all around the world, so Alaveteli lets
+    you specify the dates for the jurisdiction relevant to your
+    site in the <a href="#admin" class="glossary__link">admin interface.</a>
