It's only a question of precision.  It ends at
2359:59.999999999999999999999  or there about...
Thus the minute 0000 (or 2400 for those picking nits) is not allowed ! At
the other end, the minute 2000 is not only allowed, but encouraged.

If you don't have a direct link to NBS, then a suitably calibrated Rubidium
standard is acceptable.
