Public Service Regulations




APRIL 1. THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 1001

INSPECTION OF OFFICES.

  1. It shall be the duty of each head of a Department to provide
    for the inspection of each office under his control by a competent and
    duly authorized officer. Such inspection shall be made at irregular
    periods, but must be made at least once in each year. The Inspector
    shall report fully to the Permanent Head on the work of each office.
    A form of inspection report should, wherever practicable, be framed.
    In addition to answering questions concerning the officers employed
    and the general working of the office, the Inspecting Officer should be
    required to report on any other matter which may be deemed worthy
    of observation.

NOTICE TO OFFICERS.

  1. Whenever notice is by the said Act required to be given to an
    officer of any decision or of any other matter it shall be sufficient if
    notice of such decision or matter is sent to such officer by a post
    letter addressed to him at the office in which he is employed.

OFFICERS ON LEAVE.

  1. Officers travelling on leave, when passing the headquarters
    of their district, should report themselves to their chief officer; and
    every officer passing through Wellington should, if time permits,
    report himself to the head of his Department.

PENALTY FOR BREACH OF REGULATIONS.

  1. Any officer or temporary employee committing a breach of
    any of these regulations for which no specific penalty is provided
    is liable to a fine not exceeding ten pounds. If the Commissioner
    so directs, such fine shall not be enforced for three months, and, if
    the officer’s conduct has been satisfactory in the meantime, it may
    then be remitted. If enforced, it shall be deducted from the salary
    or wages payable to such officer or employee and paid into the Public
    Service Superannuation Fund. A record of all such fines shall be kept.

In pursuance of the provisions of the Public Service Act, 1912,
His Excellency the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, with
the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion,
approves of the foregoing regulations.

LIVERPOOL, Governor.

Approved in Council, this thirty-first day of March, one thousand
nine hundred and thirteen.

J. F. ANDREWS,
Clerk of the Executive Council.

By Authority: JOHN MACKAY, Government Printer, Wellington.
