REGULATION 6.—ENROLMENT OF THE RESERVE.
At any time and from time to time the Governor-General may, by Proclamation, proclaim and direct the enrolment of any class or classes of the Reserve.
REGULATION 7.—PREPARATION OF REGISTER.
(1) Forthwith after the enrolment of any class or classes of the Reserve has been so proclaimed and directed as afore- said the Director shall prepare a register of that class or those classes in such manner as the Minister directs.
(2) As soon as practicable after the gazetting of the Proclamation by which the enrolment of any class is so proclaimed and directed the Director shall issue to every person enrolled in that class a certificate of enrolment in such form as the Minister from time to time directs.
(3) The register shall be amended from time to time by correcting errors therein, adding the names of reservists thereto, and striking out the names of all persons who cease to belong to the Reserve or to the class in which they are enrolled, to the intent that the register shall at all times, so far as practicable, be a correct and complete record of all persons who for the time being belong to the class or classes so enrolled.
(4) If the Director is satisfied, whether by the production of a certificate under the hand of an authorized officer or otherwise, that any person enrolled in the Reserve has, whether before or after the commencement of these regulations, volunteered for service outside New Zealand in the armed forces, and that he has not been accepted for service, the Director shall endorse on the register a statement of that fact.
(5) Nothing done under these regulations shall be rendered in any manner invalid or unlawful by reason of any error or defect in the register.
(6) The register shall in all Courts and in all proceedings be sufficient evidence that the persons named therein belong to the class in which they are so enrolled until the contrary is proved.
(7) Any extract certified under the hand of the Director (of whose signature all Courts shall take judicial notice) shall, in all Courts and in all proceedings, be sufficient evidence, in the absence of proof to the contrary, of the contents of the register.
NATIONAL SERVICE OUTSIDE THE ARMED FORCES.
REGULATION 8.—MINISTER MAY DIRECT RESERVISTS TO PERFORM ANY SERVICES.
(1) The Minister may, if it appears to him to be necessary or expedient so to do for securing the public safety, the defence of New Zealand, or the efficient prosecution of any war in which His Majesty may be engaged, or for maintaining supplies and services essential to the life of the community, direct any male or female reservist, or any member of any armed force who is on leave of absence, to perform such services in New Zealand as may be specified in the direction, not being services as a member of any armed force but being services which the reservist is, in the opinion of the Minister, capable of performing.
(2) Any services required by a direction given under this regulation shall be performed upon such terms as to remuneration and conditions of service as may be prescribed by the provisions of any Act, or of any regulations or orders made under any Act, or of any award or industrial agreement, or of any other agreement whatsoever that may be applicable to those services or to similar services.
(3) If no such terms are prescribed as aforesaid in respect of any services to be performed under this regulation or if a dispute arises as to what terms are so prescribed, the services shall be performed upon such terms as may be prescribed by the Minister of Labour.
