Time flies: Clocks set to spring forward this Sunday morning
The Minister for Justice, Simon Harris, is reminding members of the public in Limerick and around the country that “summer time” will commence at 1am this Sunday.
Pictured is Rebecca Gleeson of Matthew Stephens Jewellers in Limerick city reminding us that clocks and watches should be put forward by an hour.
While there will be a grand stretch in the evenings from Sunday, you'll have to wait until October 29 to get your hour back.
The last clock change was due to take place in spring 2021; however, the proposal was put on the back burner as the Covid-19 pandemic began.
As it currently stands under EU law, the clocks in all member states change at the same time.
While the European Parliament voted in favour of ending seasonal time changes in 2019, EU institutions have not made progress on implementing the decision.
