Lieutenants and Senior Engineers in the Royal Naval Reserve.
Marine Department,
Wellington, 21st October, 1913.
IT is hereby notified that a communication has been received from the Registrar-General of Shipping and Seamen, London, stating that the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty have approved of the grant of a step in relative rank to Lieutenants of the Royal Naval Reserve on attaining eight years’ seniority, and to Senior Engineers on promotion to that rank.
It is stated that this will entitle those officers to wear an additional gold-braid stripe, but that it will not entitle them to any increase of full pay whilst serving in the Fleet or under training.
