EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1984 No. 371
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.
Regulation 108A of the Military Financial Regulations provides for the payment of aircraft allowance to a member of the Army who is permitted under regulation 76 to travel in his or her private aircraft in lieu of travelling at Commonwealth expense.
These Statutory Rules repeal regulation 108A of the Military Financial Regulations, which has been replaced by Determination 0403, Aircraft Allowance, made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903, and repeals regulation 76 of the Military Financial Regulations which, as a consequence, is no longer required.
The date of effect is the date Determination 0403 is made.
