1582 #
1583 #       The local time for general purposes in the Islands shall be
1584 #       Co-ordinated Universal time minus 8 hours and shall be known
1585 #       as Pitcairn Standard Time.
1586 #
1587 # ... I have also seen Pitcairn listed as UTC minus 9 hours in several
1588 # references, and can only assume that this was an error in interpretation
1589 # somehow in light of this proclamation.

1582 # We don't know the date of that quote, but we'll guess they
1583 # started DST on June 3.  Possibly DST was observed other years
1584 # in Midway, but we have no record of it.

1595 # Transitions before 2015 are from timeanddate.com, which consulted
1596 # the Norfolk Island Museum and the Australian Bureau of Meteorology's
1597 # Norfolk Island station, and found no record of Norfolk observing DST
1598 # other than in 1974/5.  See:

1603 # From Rives McDow (1999-11-08):
1604 # A Proclamation was signed by the Governor of Pitcairn on the 27th March 1998
1605 # with regard to Pitcairn Standard Time.  The Proclamation is as follows.
1606 #
1607 #       The local time for general purposes in the Islands shall be
1608 #       Co-ordinated Universal time minus 8 hours and shall be known
1609 #       as Pitcairn Standard Time.
1610 #
1611 # ... I have also seen Pitcairn listed as UTC minus 9 hours in several
1612 # references, and can only assume that this was an error in interpretation
1613 # somehow in light of this proclamation.
1614 
1615 # From Rives McDow (1999-11-09):
1616 # The Proclamation regarding Pitcairn time came into effect on 27 April 1998
1617 # ... at midnight.
