Horse Furniture.

Horse furniture will be of the universal pattern, with such special regimental ornaments as may be approved by the General Officer Commanding.

Arms and Accoutrements.

Arms and accoutrements as may be ordered will be carried on parade in all orders of dress.

Haversack.

The haversack will be worn over the right shoulder, except in the case of the Royal N.Z. Artillery and N.Z. Artillery, and mounted men of the N.Z. Engineers, N.Z. Corps of Signals, and N.Z. Army Service Corps, who will wear it over the left shoulder. The sling will be worn under the waist-belt, the haversack hanging outside the side-arm with the top below the lower edge of the belt (in line with the top of the bayonet-scabbard, if side-arms are worn). The haversack will be worn by all ranks in marching order; on other occasions it will be carried only when ordered for use, and is not to be worn rolled up.

ORDERS, DECORATIONS, AND MEDALS.

Orders, decorations, and medals will be worn with the service dress in review order (full dress). They will also be worn in service-dress uniform on all ceremonial parades by officers and other ranks on regimental establishments when actually parading with their units or attending funerals, and also by other ranks when walking out. On other occasions ribands only will be worn.
No medals or decorations are allowed to be worn on the left breast except such as have been conferred by His Majesty for military or other service, or by a foreign Sovereign or State with His Majesty's consent, or by the Government of New Zealand for military service. Medals granted by humane societies for saving life may be worn on the right breast, but no other decorations are at any time to be worn whilst in uniform.
The order of wearing orders, decorations, and medals is given in Appendix VIII.
Regulations for the wearing of orders, decorations, and medals are contained in Appendix VIII.

By Authority: W. A. G. SKINNER, Government Printer, Wellington.

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ... NZGOAL is the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence ... [t]o the greatest extent possible, agencies should apply this licence to copyright material on their websites"
