EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1982 NO. 34
ISSUED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE MINISTER FOR DEFENCE
AMENDMENT OF THE NAVAL FORCES REGULATIONS
Section 12 of the Defence Amendment Act 1979 provides that during the period ending on 1 January 1982, the Minister may make interim determinations amending or repealing regulations. The Act also deems such interim determinations to be Statutory Rules.
Regulation 144A of the Naval Forces Regulations, which provides for the grant of War Service Leave to members of the Navy, has been replaced by Determination 2606, War Service Leave, made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
These Statutory Rules therefore repeal regulation 144A.
The date of effect is the date on which Determination 2606, War Service Leave is made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903.
