Daylight Saving Ends
Sunday 1 April 2012, at 3:00 am summer time when clocks are put back one hour.
Queensland and the Northern Territory do not participate in Daylight Saving.
From 2008 the ACT, NSW, South Australia, Victoria and Tasmania will all start daylight savings on the first Sunday in October and end on the first Sunday in April. This will result in an extra month of daylight saving for the ACT and introduces common start and finish dates in these states. The Daylight Saving Trial in Western Australia has now ended, and any extension of Daylight Saving was rejected by 2009 referendum.
