In Norway, DST (locally known by the expression "summer-time") was introduced in 1916, 1940–45, and 1959-65. The arrangement was controversial, and in 1965 the Norwegian parliament (Stortinget) voted to discontinue the practice. The neighbour, Sweden, did not use it.
However, in 1980 DST was reintroduced (together with Sweden and Denmark), and since at least 2002 Norway follows the European Union in this matter.[1]
