EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1984 NO. 444
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 15 of the Defence Force (Reserves) (Financial) Regulations allows a reserve member who lives in in service accommodation and is not required to do so as a result of reserve service, to be charged for rations and quarters.
These Statutory Rules repeal regulation 15 which has been replaced by Determination 2501, Charge for Rations and Quarters, made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
The date of effect is the date Determination 2501 is made.
