Morocco Maintains Year-Round Summer Time, Adjusts for Ramadan

Every last Sunday of each year, Moroccans set their watches to 3 a.m. on universal time GMT+0. But what about this year? Will we be delaying the time by 60 minutes?
Since October 26, 2018, the date of promulgation of decree 2-13-781 by an exceptional Council of Government, Morocco has decided to maintain summer time GMT+1 all year round.
However, the decree provides, by decision of the government, for a change in legal time during the holy month of Ramadan, and only for about thirty days.
In 2018, the President of the European Commission had proposed to all Member States to ban the time change and to apply permanently summer time or winter time. An example that Morocco had followed in the wake.
