EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1985 NO. 20
ISSUED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE MINISTER FOR DEFENCE AMENDMENT OF THE MILITARY FINANCIAL REGULATIONS
Section 12 of the Defence Amendment Act 1979 provides that the Minister may make interim determinations amending or repealing regulations. The Act also deems such interim determinations to be Statutory Rules.
Regulation 154 of the Military Financial Regulations which deals with Oversea Settling-In Allowance has been replaced by a tri-Service determination, Determination 3711, Settling In and Settling Out Allowance made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
These Statutory Rules therefore repeal regulation 154 with effect from the date on which Determination 3711 is made.
