Day Light savings is not designed for tropical regions like Far North Queensland. That is why they don’t have it.

Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT) is in use from the first Sunday in October to the first Sunday in April during Daylight Saving Time (DST). Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) is used during the remainder of the year.
