16.—(1.) The rates of pay and rates of allowances provided for in the Naval Financial Regulations as amended by these Regulations apply in respect of service in the Permanent Naval Forces, the Naval Emergency Reserve Forces or the Citizen Naval Forces, as the case requires, on and after the seventh day of July, 1967.

(2.) Where, but for this sub-regulation, a male member would, by virtue of the application of the amendments of regulation 80 or regulation 84 of the Naval Financial Regulations as from the seventh day of July, 1967, in accordance with sub-regulation (1.) of this regulation, cease to be entitled to marriage allowance or become entitled to marriage allowance at a reduced rate, the member shall not cease to be so entitled to marriage allowance or the rate of marriage allowance shall not be so reduced, as the case may be, until the date of commencement of these Regulations.

(3.) Where an allotment made by a male member was in force in respect of the period from and including the seventh day of July, 1967, to and including the day immediately before the commencement of these Regulations, or in respect of a part of that period, at a rate that entitled him to marriage allowance at the rate of One dollar two cents per day but would not entitle him to a marriage allowance at the rate of One dollar five cents per day under the Naval Financial Regulations as amended by these Regulations, the member may increase his allotment in respect of the period or the part of the period, as the case may be, and, if he does so, marriage allowance is payable to him in accordance with the Naval Financial Regulations as so amended as if his increased allotment had been in force during the period or the part of the period.

(4.) The Naval Board may, by virtue of this sub-regulation, make a determination for the purpose of paragraph (a) or paragraph (b) of sub-regulation (1a.) of regulation 84 of the Naval Financial Regulations that is expressed to be deemed to have taken effect on the seventh day of July, 1967, and, if the Naval Board makes such a determination that is so expressed, the last two preceding sub-regulations apply to and in relation to the determination as if the reference to the application of the amendments of regulation 84 of the Naval Financial Regulations as from the seventh day of July, 1967, were read as a reference to the application of those amendments and of that determination as from that date.

(5.) The rates of pay provided for in the Naval Financial Regulations as amended by these Regulations do not apply to or in relation to service of an Apprentice during so much of the eighth term of his apprenticeship training as occurred on or after the seventh day of July, 1967, and before the commencement of these Regulations, but the rate of active pay per week of an Apprentice in respect of that service, is, by virtue of this sub-regulation, increased by Seventy-seven cents per week.
