SA summer time debate set to continue: MP

DEBATE over the merits of daylight saving will continue, possibly for the next 50 years, South Australian Attorney-General John Rau says.

Summer time ends in SA on Sunday, after the period was extended in 2009 to push into April each year.

That keeps SA in line with the eastern states but causes some concern for people living on the state's west coast who find themselves leaving for work or school in the dark.

Mr Rau said he appreciated the inconvenience to some but believed the benefits outweighed the problems.

"We've found as much of a happy compromise as we can presently," he said.

"But I'm sure this is a debate we'll be hearing a lot about for the next 10, 15, 20 or maybe 50 years.

"It's a great yarn particularly at this time of the year when the clocks are changing."

Mr Rau said it was unlikely South Australia would ever consider introducing two time zones across the state, which could result in those people in the state's west feeling disconnected from Adelaide.
