Morocco plan to introduce Daylight Saving Time

[Patrice Scattolin]

According to this article: 
http://www.avmaroc.com/actualite/heure-dete-comment-a127896.html  (and 
republished here: http://www.actu.ma/heure-dete-comment_i127896_0.html)
the changes occurs at midnight:

   saturday night may 31st at midnight (which in french is to be 
intrepreted as the night between saturday and sunday)
   sunday night the 28th  at midnight

Seeing that the 28th is monday, I am guessing that she intends to say 
the midnight of the 28th which is the midnight between sunday and 
monday, which jives with other sources that say that it's inclusive 
june1st to sept 27th.

The decision was taken by decree *2-08-224 *but I can't find the decree 
published on the web.

It's also confirmed here: 
http://www.maroc.ma/NR/exeres/FACF141F-D910-44B0-B7FA-6E03733425D1.htm 
on a government portal as being  between june 1st and sept 27th (not yet 
posted in english).
