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 274 of the Naval Financial Regulations provides for the payment of certain allowances to members of the Naval Reserve Forces as if they were Permanent Force members.
These Statutory Rules amend regulation 274 to prevent the payment of Vehicle Allowance in respect of a journey for which the member is entitled to Attendance Allowance under Determination 0499, Attendances Allowance, made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
