The time depends on what part of Australia you're in. There are currently a few time zones within the mainland. The eastern states are also in Daylight Savings - aka Australian Eastern Daylight Savings Time (AEDST) (moved an hour forward from non-daylight savings time or Australian Eastern Standard Time(AEST)).
