02/05/2011 (Agence Europe) - European ombudsman closes Christian festivals case. As the European Commission has made its apologies for leaving Christian festivals off the school diary published for 2010/2011 and pledged to make amendments for the next edition, the European ombudsman has decided to close the case. An Irish priest made a complaint, noting that the diary referred to neither Easter nor Christmas, even though it referred to non-Christian festivals. (I.L./transl.fl)
