ISSUED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE MINISTER FOR DEFENCE
AMENDMENT OF THE MILITARY 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.
Regulations 107 and 244 of the Military Financial Regulations provide for the payment of meal allowance to members of the Army.
These Statutory Rules repeal regulation 244 and, where appropriate, repeal the relevant Division or Part of the regulations concerned which have been replaced by Determination 0506, Meal Allowance, made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903 and make a consequential amendment to regulation 222.
The date of effect is the date Determination 0506 is made.
