People involved in government and international organizations sometimes
have strange
ways of deciding what their duties are. It seems bizarre that an
international organization
would establish standards for broadcast time scales without expecting
that the
broadcast time scales would be used as the legally binding national time
scale.
(Where legally binding means if you show up for a mandatory appointment
with a government agency later that the required time, effectively
reckoned from the
broadcast time scale, you will be punished.)

That is because ITU-R has neither interest nor charter to concern itself
with issues of national timekeeping.
