Google site:gov.tc/pressoffice/907-public-notice-daylight-savings-time-dst (home to magic disappearing press releases) and look at Cached document for contents: "22 Aug 2017 PUBLIC NOTICE - DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME (DST) The public is hereby advised that following extensive consultations across the Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI), Cabinet has taken a decision on July 19, 2017 for the reintroduction of seasonal time change in the Turks and Caicos Islands to have Daylight Saving Time (DST) during the summer months and standard time, otherwise known as local time during the winter months and for the same to take effect on March 11, 2018. The reinstatement of the observation of Daylight Savings Time (DST), will return the TCI to the same schedule as most of the eastern United States and Canada. Effective Sunday, March 11th 2018, Turks and Caicos will observe daylight saving time, and will adjust time one hour forward." -- Take care. Thanks, Brian Inglis, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Thanks. I wonder why they make the press releases disappear? Anyway, I think I'll stick with the Magnetic Media URL as it is still there and says essentially the same thing. J William Piggott wrote: ^
