SECTION III:-FULL PAY AND ALLOWANCES: SHIP'S COMPANY.
10. Rates to be credited.-The rates of pay and allowances given in
this section and in Appendices II and III are to be credited to all ratings
in the New Zealand Division, whatever the form of engagement under
which they may be serving, with the proviso that the combined pay and
allowances payable to ratings transferred or loaned from the Imperial Navy
will in no case be less than that payable under Imperial regulations to
them and to their wives and [or] children. In this connection the
balance of deferred pay accruing to a rating lent from the Imperial Navy,
after deduction of pension contribution, is to be treated as part of his
emoluments. This will not, however, be so treated in the case of a rating
permanently transferred, whose deferred pay is in lieu of pension.
2. The balance payable under this provision is to be credited in a lump
sum quarterly on the ledger, supported by a voucher setting forth in detail
the rates and totals of pay and allowances payable under the respective
regulations, and the difference of pay credited. This sum will be liable to
alteration as rates of pay and allowances fluctuate, and care is to be taken
that the amounts paid are adjusted as requisite.
3. The daily pay of men in the second class for conduct is to be less
by one-sixth than their pay when not in that class. Pay in this connection
shall not be regarded as including marriage or dependant's allowance or
deferred pay.
11. Marriage Allowance.-On production to the Commanding Officer
of satisfactory evidence of marriage, marriage allowance shall be payable
to ratings at a flat rate of 2s. per diem, with the addition of 6d. per diem
