IN pursuance and exercise of the authority conferred upon him by the Public Service Act, 1912, the Commissioner, with the approval of the Governor in Council, doth hereby make the following amendment to the regulations applicable to officers of the Post and Telegraph Department, made on the twentieth day of May, one thousand nine hundred and fourteen, and published in the New Zealand Gazette of the twenty-fifth day of May, one thousand nine hundred and fourteen, as set forth in the Schedule hereto.

SCHEDULE.

REGULATION No. 27 is hereby revoked, and the following substituted in lieu thereof:—

“27. The allowance shall be for each day of twenty-four hours, and the day shall be deemed to commence at the hour of departure from headquarters. For any portion of a day the rate shall be one twenty-fourth of the full daily rate for each hour’s absence; provided that, when the absence does not exceed six hours, actual and reasonable expenses only shall be paid.

“In computing the time of absence, a fraction of an hour, if less than half an hour, shall not be taken into account, but half an hour or more shall be reckoned as one hour.

“In any case special arrangements may be made by the Commissioner as to the allowance to be made to any person.

“Whenever the Permanent Head is satisfied that a lower travelling-allowance than the scale should suffice he may direct accordingly.”

As witness my hand this thirtieth day of October, one thousand nine hundred and fourteen.
