# IATA SSIM (1993-02/1994-09) say that the Holiday Islands (Hayman, Lindeman,

# Hamilton) observed DST for two years after the rest of Queensland stopped.
|
|
|
|
|
# Hamilton is the largest, but there is also a Hamilton in Victoria,

# From John Mackin (1991-03-06):
|
1994-09-13 21:50:18 +00:00
|
|
|
# We in Australia have _never_ referred to DST as `daylight' time.
|
|
|
|
|
# It is called `summer' time. Now by a happy coincidence, `summer'
|
|
|
|
|
# and `standard' happen to start with the same letter; hence, the
|
|
|
|
|
# abbreviation does _not_ change...
|
|
|
|
|
# The legislation does not actually define abbreviations, at least
|
|
|
|
|
# in this State, but the abbreviation is just commonly taken to be the
|
|
|
|
|
# initials of the phrase, and the legislation here uniformly uses
|
|
|
|
|
# the phrase `summer time' and does not use the phrase `daylight
|
|
|
|
|
# time'.
|
|
|
|
|
# Announcers on the Commonwealth radio network, the ABC (for Australian
|
|
|
|
|
# Broadcasting Commission), use the phrases `Eastern Standard Time'
|
|
|
|
|
# or `Eastern Summer Time'. (Note, though, that as I say in the
|
|
|
|
|
# current australasia file, there is really no such thing.) Announcers
|
|
|
|
|
# on its overseas service, Radio Australia, use the same phrases
|
|
|
|
|
# prefixed by the word `Australian' when referring to local times;
|
|
|
|
|
# time announcements on that service, naturally enough, are made in UTC.

|
|
|
|
|
# CST for any place operating at a GMTOFF of 9:30

# WST for any place operating at a GMTOFF of 8:00

|
# Mark Prior <mrp@itd.adelaide.edu.au> writes that his newspaper

# reports that NSW's fall 1995 change will occur at 2:00,
|
|
|
|
|
# but Robert Elz says it's been 3:00 in Victoria since 1970
|
|
|
|
|
# and perhaps the newspaper's `2:00' is referring to standard time.
|
1996-03-02 21:47:10 +00:00
