EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1984 NO. 459
ISSUED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE MINISTER FOR DEFENCE
AMENDMENT OF THE DEFENCE FORCE (RESERVES) (FINANCIAL) 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 16 of the Defence Force (Reserves) (Financial) Regulations provides for certain provisions which deal with the rates at which salary is payable to members serving on continuous full-time service to be applied to members of the Reserve Forces. All other provisions of the Defence Force (Reserves) (Financial) Regulations have been repealed.
These Statutory Rules repeal the Defence Force (Reserves) (Financial) Regulations as the remaining provision has been transferred to Determination 0199, Pay of Reserve Force Members, made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
The date of effect is 31 December 1984, the date on which the amendment to Determination 0199, Pay of Reserve Force Members, is made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
