Girls,

In the Netherlands, we use the word 'regeldagen', meaning something like 'rescheduling days', during which supply and demand have to be 'reset'.
They're supposed to occur around 10 days, 6 weeks and 3 months.
I honestly don't know what the English word would be and therefore wonder if it 'exists' in other languages, which leads me to the fact that some are in favour of getting rid of the word altogether.
A few questions: what is the word in English? Do you use it in everyday practice? Would you like to abolish it? How else to explain the phenomenon?
Fast replies are much appreciated, as we are editing one of the brochures in which the word comes up and I would like to offer some thoughts on the issue. Thanks in advance.

Warmly,

Marianne Vanderveen, Netherlands (like many others drawing near to the 24th ;-))
