Where's the exclusion?  I couldn't find anything specifically about that 
(whereas the Scotland Act 1998 explicitly excludes "Timescales, time zones 
and the subject-matter of the Summer Time Act 1972." in schedule 5.II.L5).  
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_in_the_United_Kingdom> states it's 
devolved in NI, referencing 
<https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/the-role-of-the-advocate-general-and-its-constitutional-context>.
