Thanks for the heads-up.
Our estimate of one year's lead time was at the low end for their
witnesses; the IATA and Jonathan Skeet both suggested two years. The
Time Lords compromised by suggesting 18 months (see page 14).
More importantly, they mentioned us on page 22 as being the only witness
commenting on a potential time border between Northern Ireland and Great
Britain, a possibility that the British government seems to have largely
overlooked.
They also mentioned us at some length on page 25 about how to best
implement UTC+1 year-round in the UK.
