Last time I checked, ACT, NSW and Vic were identical (other than minor

that I remember each individual one.)

Tas uses different dates, due to its southernness; and Qld just doesn't
do DST at all. I have no knowledge of how the more westerly states and
territories handle it.

I concur with the above. At 3am it becomes 2am, then at the other end 2am becomes 3am.


Queensland ('Brisbane') doesn't 'do' DST anymore (they used to IIRC)
Tasmania ('Hobart') uses different dates (They used to be the same as Sydney ane Melbourne).


IIRC the entire East Coast used to be the same and called it 'Eastern Standard Time' and 'Eastern Summer Time'. Of course, the states are all different now, but still call it 'AEST' and 'AEDT'!
