DEC. 6.] THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 3147

93. Leave: General.—Record of Leave.—A leave history-sheet is
    to be kept for each man in accordance with the instructions on the
    established form.

94. Travelling.—When ratings are proceeding on long leave and are
    travelling to visit the homes of their parents or next-of-kin, the time
    occupied by the journey, if within the Dominion and occupying more than
    twelve hours, may be allowed as travelling-leave in addition to the long
    leave granted. The same rule applies on returning from such leave.

95. Sick-leave.—All leave other than week-end leave or periods not exceed-
    ing forty-eight hours shall be counted as long leave, with the exception
    of sick-leave. The grant of sick-leave is to be governed by the King's
    Regulations and Admiralty Instructions, and shall not be reckoned or
    included in the amount of recreational leave prescribed.

96. Expiration of Engagement and Leave to coincide.—Except under special
    circumstances, which are to be reported to the Naval Board, all petty
    officers and men are to be granted, before the expiration of their engage-
    ments, the accumulated leave due to them in such a manner that the
    expiration of the leave and the completion of the engagement coincide.
    If the circumstances in which the rating is discharged do not admit of the
    leave being taken prior to discharge, pay is to be extended and leave
    allowance granted for the number of days for which leave has been
    accumulated.

97. Forfeiture of Leave.—The act of desertion entails the forfeiture of
    all leave accumulated to the date of desertion unless the forfeiture is
    specially remitted by the tribunal by which the man is tried or by the Naval
    Board. The leave of all ratings dismissed or discharged for misconduct,
    or whose services are no longer required on account of misconduct, will
    be forfeited.

98. Leave in England.—When one of His Majesty's ships of the New
    Zealand Division visits England and the stay in England is sufficiently
    long, all men who will return in the vessel to New Zealand, and who have
    already formed part of her complement before her visit to England, may
    receive leave up to a maximum of ten days during the stay in England.
    This leave is not to be deducted from the amount of leave due in the
    leave-year, but in the case of loan ratings the period spent in England will
    not count towards foreign-service leave.

99. Discharge by Purchase.—All men, whether loan or New Zealand, who
    are discharged free or by purchase are to be granted any foreign-service
    leave due to them before discharge, but no other leave is to be granted.

100. Men invalided.—Men who have regularly joined the New Zealand
     Division or have been transferred thereto (vide Article 50), and who are
     discharged invalided or insane may be allowed to receive the balance of
     leave due in the current leave-year. Loan ratings invalided from the station
     will be dealt with on arrival in England as laid down in Article 141 of these
     regulations.
