HC Deb 27 February 1922 vol 151 cc89-90W
Mr. MURROUGH WILSON

asked the Home Secretary in what British, Dominions and foreign countries summer time was in operation last year and has been adopted as a permanent institution?

Mr. SHORTT

According to the information in my possession, summer time was in operation in 1921 in Holland, France, Belgium, Luxemburg, Portugal and Mexico. It was understood to be permanent in all these countries except Mexico, and possibly Luxemburg. Summer time was not in operation in Germany, Switzerland, Spain, and Denmark. I have no definite information as to other countries or as to the overseas Dominions.
