Amendment of Commonwealth Public Service Regulations.

Regulation 157 of the Commonwealth Public Service Regulations is repealed, and the following regulation inserted in its stead:—

“157. Officers not in receipt of forage or equipment allowance who use their own motor cars or cycles when travelling on public business, or any officer whose motor car or cycle is used for such purpose; may be allowed in respect thereof payment at the following rates:—

Motor car..............................................................................	8d. per mile
Motor cycle with side car.......................................................	5d. per mile
Motor cycle..........................................................................	4d. per mile
Bicycle.................................................................................	3d. per mile

Provided that where the distance travelled on any journey by bicycle exceeds 20 miles, the allowance shall be at the rate of l½d. for each additional mile. Provided also that the Commissioner may increase the rates prescribed by this regulation in any case in which he is satisfied that they are inadequate.

Proof must be given that the use of a motor car, motor cycle, or bicycle results in greater efficiency and saving than would be the case were other means of conveyance employed.”
