The EU has standard rules defined in a Directive. The present Directive is 2000/84/EC and was published in the Official Journal on 2001-02-02. It took effect from March 2002. That Directive didn't actually change the rules; the last one that did was 97/44/EC, which changed the autumn rule from "fourth Sunday in October" to "last Sunday in October". This appeared in the OJ on 1997-08-01 and gave the rules for 1998 to 2001 inclusive. So we're talking a year or so lead time. -- Clive D.W.
