This paper deals with stability of linear periodic time-varying difference delay systems, i.e. dynamical systems where a finite dimensional signal at a certain time is given as a linear time-varying function of its value at a finite number of delayed times. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for exponential stability, that is a generalisation of the one by Henry and Hale in the 1970s. It has a control theoretic interpretation in terms of the Harmonic Transfer Function of a corresponding linear control system.
