1588 # http://pravo.gov.ru/proxy/ips/?docbody=&nd=102010545 |
|
1589 # removed the extra hour ("decree time") on the territory of the USSR |
|
1590 # starting with the last Sunday of March 1991. |
|
1591 # It also allowed (but not mandated) Kazakh SSR, Kirghiz SSR, Tajik SSR, |
|
1592 # Turkmen SSR and Uzbek SSR to not have "summer" time. |
|
1593 # |
|
1594 # The 1992-01-13 act also refers to the act of the Cabinet of Ministers |

1603 # Republic of Georgia, Latvian SSR, Lithuanian SSR, SSR Moldova, |
|
1604 # Estonian SSR; Komi ASSR; Kaliningrad oblast; Nenets autonomous okrug |
|
1605 # were to move clocks 1 hour forward. |

1606 # Kazakh SSR (excluding Uralsk oblast); Republic of Kyrgyzstan, Tajik |
|
1607 # SSR; Andijan, Jizzakh, Namangan, Sirdarya, Tashkent, Fergana oblasts |
|
1608 # of the Uzbek SSR were to move clocks 1 hour backwards. |
|
1609 # Other territories were to not move clocks. |
|
1610 # When the "summer" time would end on 1991-09-29, clocks were to be |
|
1611 # moved 1 hour backwards on the territory of the USSR excluding |
|
1612 # Kazakhstan, Kirghizia, Uzbekistan, Turkmenia, Tajikistan. |
|
1613 # |

1614 # Apparently there were last minute changes. Apparently Kazakh act No. 170 |

1620 # were to not move clocks and Uralsk oblast was to move clocks |
