✨ Marine Department Examination Rules

DEC. 15.] THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 3789

Fee always paid first.—Applicants for examination, and persons inquiring as to their eligibility, will be required, in making their application on form Exn. 2, to pay the examination fee before any step is taken in the way of inquiring into their services or testing their qualifications. If the candidate is found not to be eligible the fee will either be returned to him or placed to his credit until he is eligible.
Where to pay Fees.—The fee for examination must be paid to the Superintendent of the Mercantile Marine Office. If a candidate offers a gratuity to any officer of the Department, he will be regarded as having committed an act of misconduct, and will be rejected and not allowed to be again examined for twelve months either at the port where the offence was committed or at any other port.
Fee in Case of Failure.—The fee paid for examination for a certificate of competency includes the fee of 2s. 6d. for examination in the sight tests, and if the candidate fails to pass those tests the fee will, with the exception of 2s. 6d., be returned to him.

If a candidate fails to pass any other part of the examination no part of the fee will be returned to him.
