In 1917, daylight savings was introduced across the Australia to save fuel during war time, however strong public opposition saw it abandoned the same year.

Daylight savings was introduced again in across Australia for the same reasons in 1942 and 1943-44, but ceased after World War II. Queensland, along with all the other mainland Australian states adopted a trial of Daylight Saving in 1971. It proved to be just that - a trial - for many Queenslanders and they did not continue with it the next spring unlike the rest of the states.

1989-91 Queensland ran another trial of daylight savings. In 1992, the Queensland Summer Time Act was the subject of a referendum where Queenslanders voted 54.5% against daylight savings.
