EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1983 NO. 17
ISSUED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE MINISTER FOR DEFENCE
AMENDMENT OF THE NAVAL 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 291 of the Naval Financial Regulations provides for the payment of a gratuity to a member of the Naval Emergency Reserve Forces when he is called out on continuous full-time service.
These Statutory Rules Rules repeal regulation 291 which has been replaced by Determination 0798, Gratuity for Members of the Emergency Reserve, made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
The date of effect is the date Determination 0798 is made.
