EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1984 NO. 215
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 111 of the Naval Financial Regulations provides for the Minister to determine a special area allowance for members of the Defence Force serving in a remote area in Australia.
These Statutory Rules repeal regulation 111 as there are no allowances currently determined, or likely to be determined, by the Minister under the regulation.
