# Australia
|
|
|
|
# From John Mackin (March 6, 1991):
|
|
# 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.

# New South Wales and subjurisdictions have their own ideas of a fun time.

|
|
# In Australia, time is not legislated federally, but rather by the
|
|
# individual states. Thus, while such terms as ``Eastern Standard Time''
|
|
# [I mean, of course, Australian EST, not any other kind] are in common
|
|
# use, _they have NO REAL MEANING_, as they are not defined in the
|
|
# legislation. This is very important to understand.
|
|
# I have researched New South Wales time only; . . .I hope that perhaps a
|
|
# resident of each state could be found to do it for their own state.
|
|
# (And I can guarantee that Victoria and NSW are different, so the link
