EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1984 NO. 182
ISSUED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE MINISTER FOR DEFENCE
AMENDMENT OF THE MILITARY FINANCIAL REGULATIONS
Section 12 of the Defence 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 215 of the Military Financial Regulations provides for an Oversea Allowance to members of the Australian Army Reserve to compensate for costs incurred for a meal or the use of a vehicle in his possession to transport himself to or from his training centre while overseas on reserve service. It has been replaced by Determination 3699, Overseas Allowance, a determination made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
These Statutory Rules repeal regulation 215 with effect from the date on which Determination 3699 is made.
