Amendment of the Australian Military Regulations 1916.

Regulation 790 of the Australian Military Regulations 1916 is repealed and the following regulation made in lieu thereof:—

“790. Temporary exemption not exceeding one year renewable from time to time, may be granted to any person on account of residing at so great a distance from the place appointed for training that attendance at training would involve great hardship. Any person granted temporary exemption under the provisions of this regulation is required to notify his address at least once in each six months either personally or in writing to the Area Officer of the Area from which he was granted exemption. In the event of his removing to any other place, locality, or part of the District other than that for which the temporary exemption was granted, he is required to notify such change of address within 30 days of such removal to the Officer-in-Charge of the Area. The Area Officer will withdraw the temporary exemption if the circumstances under which it was originally issued no longer exist.”
