It's nearly 2015 here, and I would expect that a chip with 'Real Time Clock' peripheral (released 2014) has clock / calendar registers...
Back in the 90s I had to calculated minutes, hours , leap year, day of week... with an 8051 :O
Today I'm used that RTC peripheral is doing that, so to name this LPC15 timer 'Real Time Clock' is a joke :((
That's a 'Real Time Counter without clock/calendar function' and unusable, if a Real Time Clock is required...
