Connecticut allegedly not to process authorizations after 5PM or on weekends

As reported by an FFL operating in the state.
CONNECTICUT JUST QUIETLY ENACTED NEW GUN CONTROL AND YOU HAD NO IDEA
As a Federal Firearms Licensee (gun dealer) here in CT, I received an automated call alert from the CT Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection, Special Licensing Firearms Unit (DESPP/SLFU) telling me that beginning August 6, 2018, authorizations will only be open until 5pmMonday – Friday.

Here in CT, every legal firearms transaction must receive an authorization number from SLFU after they run an instant background check. This typically takes just a few minutes when calls are placed at non-peak hours. On a weekend at mid-day or late in the day, you can call for well over an hour and get just a busy signal. 

Currently, citizens or dealers call the same number up until 7pm weekdays. But now for some reason (the likely excuse is budget) we can only call until 5pm.
Needs verification.

Here is what is currently posted by the state:
