DAYLIGHT SAVING EXTENSION

The Hon. R.L. BROKENSHIRE: Presented a petition from 16 residents of South Australia requesting the council to call on the state government to:

1. Resist any further extension of daylight saving hours;

2. Conduct a full and proper review of the current extension of daylight savings hours and its impact on families and communities in the western half of South Australia;

3. Resist any efforts to shift the South Australian time zone to be the same as Eastern Standard Time; and

4. Set a plan and time frame to shift South Australia to true Central Standard Time, being one hour behind Eastern Standard Time.
