EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1984 NO. 450
ISSUED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE MINISTER FOR DEFENCE
AMENDMENT OF THE AIR FORCE REGULATIONS
Section 12 of the Defence Amendment Act 1979 allows the Minister to make interim determinations amending or repealing regulations. The Act also deems such interim determinations to be Statutory Rules.
Regulation 631 of the Air Force Regulations provides for payment of an amount to a member who is serving on long term duty overseas where the member incurs expenses for the medical or dental treatment of his or her family.
These Statutory Rules repeal regulation 631 as the provision is now contained in Determination 3737, Hospital and Medical Expenses of a Member’s Family Overseas and Determination 3738, Dental Expenses of a Member’s Family Overseas, made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
The date of effect is the date of signature of Determinations 3737 and 3738.
