The Board of Commissioners, established under the Commonwealth Public Service Act 1922-1924, made these amendments in accordance with the authority conferred by the Act and subject to the approval of the Governor-General. The changes were approved in Executive Council and took effect from 1 January 1926.

Scope and Application
The Legislative Instrument C1926L00073 pertains to a specific amendment to the Commonwealth Public Service Regulations, which are themselves regulations under the Commonwealth Public Service Act 1922-1924. This statutory rule, enacted as the Twenty-Second Amendment in 1926, is aimed at modifying the figures associated with the office of Painter within the regulatory framework, as detailed in Table C of sub-regulation (4) of regulation 106. The amendment replaces the existing figures of "266" and "282" with "272" and "288" respectively. This legislative action applies to the Commonwealth public service, impacting the remuneration and related conditions for the office of Painter. The amendment came into effect on 1 January 1926, following approval by the Governor-General. This legislative instrument is part of the overarching jurisdiction of the Commonwealth, thus extending its reach across the entire nation, governed by the provisions of the Commonwealth Public Service Act 1922-1924.
Key Provisions
The main operative sections of this legislative instrument, the Regulations Under the Commonwealth Public Service Act 1922-1924 (Twenty-Second Amendment, 1926), involve an amendment to Table C of sub-regulation (4) of regulation 106. Specifically, section 1 of the document provides that the figures "266" and "282" previously shown in respect of the office of Painter are to be omitted and replaced with the figures "272" and "288" (section 1). This amendment is to take effect from 1 January 1926.
The obligations and requirements imposed by this Act are primarily concerned with the adjustment of salary scales within the Commonwealth Public Service. The Board of Commissioners, exercising the authority conferred by the Commonwealth Public Service Act 1922-1924, has amended the regulations to adjust the salary figures for the office of Painter. This amendment ensures that the remuneration for this position is updated accurately, reflecting any changes in the public service's financial framework. The amendment is subject to the approval of the Governor-General, as evidenced by the approval dated 9 June 1926.
In terms of offences, penalties, or consequences for breach, the document does not explicitly detail any sanctions for non-compliance with the amendment. However, it is implicit that adherence to these regulations is necessary for maintaining the integrity of the Commonwealth Public Service's salary structure. Failure to comply with these regulations could potentially lead to administrative or legal repercussions, though specific penalties are not outlined within the text of this amendment.
