Fernando do Noronha

I have one doubt about the time zone decree in Brazil. How will Pernambuco
handle Fernando do Noronha? The little island was on GMT-2 without DST
while it's administrative big brother Pernambuco state was on GMT-3.

Since Pernambuco state is now on GMT-3 with DST, it would be logical
to presume that Fernando do Noronha would be going on GMT-2 with DST,
but time zone decisions are not always logical in that sense. Maybe they
will just stay on GMT-2 without DST on Fernando do Noronha.

Any information about this would be appreciated.
