EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1984 NO. 363
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 16A of the Defence Force (Reserves)(Financial) Regulations provides for payment of compensation for the loss of, or damage to, clothing or personal effects of a member of the Reserves where the loss or damage is attributable to the service of the member.
These Statutory Rules repeal Regulation 16A which is being replaced by Determination 2802, Compensation for Loss of, or Damage to, Clothing or Personal Effects, made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
The date of effect is the date Determination 2802 is signed.
