DAYLIGHT SAVING.
MR. SIDEY SATISFIED.
FRESH BILL NEXT SESSION.
Mr T. K. Sidey, M.P., replying to questions put to him, said that a Summer Time Bill will certainly be inti”Oduced next session: of Parliament. “The. inconvenience that daylight saving has actually caused iS nothing like what was anticipated,” said Mr Sidey, “and its advantages have fully ■come up to expectations. One year’s trial <in:ay be hardily sufficient to : justify the demand that the reform be made, permanent, but assuredly the. results have not weakened the arguments for its continuance at present, nor .have they disclosed any evidence, for its rejection. There may perhaps ■be a question as to the date of. germinating for the year the operation of the statute. We have not yet reached the stage at which a decision' on that point can be finally .arrived at. The date/ of commencing in November has worked all right. I am more than ever satisfied as to the advantages of the hour’s change.”.
