✨ Military Pay and Allowances Regulations
330 THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. [No. 18
-
A warrant officer, non-commissioned officer, or man of
the Territorial Force appointed to perform the duties of a higher
rank or appointment during a vacancy at the annual camp shall,
provided the proportionate establishment of such higher ranks in
the unit is not exceeded, be granted the minimum rate of pay
attached to such rank or appointment. Such appointment must be
published in Part II of Unit Routine Orders. -
When detailed to attend a training camp a Chaplain shall
be entitled to receive the pay and allowances payable to an officer
of equivalent rank in the Territorial Force. -
(a) Except as provided in subpara. (b) hereof, where a
public servant has been authorized to receive special leave on pay
to attend an annual training camp or a continuous course of instruc-
tion, for which the issue of military pay is authorized, the military
pay earned by him will not be paid to him, but will be credited to
his Department.
This includes pay for any Saturday, Sunday, or public holiday
which forms part of and is continuous with the period of the camp
or course.
(b) Where over the same period the Territorial military pay
earned exceeds the departmental pay, the public servant may accept
military pay and shall refund to his Department his civilian pay if
already drawn by him.
(c) Any public servant who, during his annual leave or while
he is on leave without pay, attends an annual training camp or a
continuous course of instruction for which the issue of pay is
authorized shall be entitled to receive personally the military pay
earned by him, including pay for any Saturday, Sunday, or public
holiday which is continuous with and forms part of the period of
the camp or course, upon the following conditions:—
(i) Annual Leave: Where the claimant is employed in a
Department under the control of the Public Service
Commissioner he must obtain through his Department
the Commissioner's approval to his receiving military pay
in addition to departmental pay; and he must produce
in camp a certificate from his Department stating that
such approval has been given and that he is on annual
leave. An officer of the Post and Telegraph Department,
New Zealand Railways, or an Education Board must
produce similar authority from his Department.
(ii) Leave without Pay: The claimant must produce a
certificate from the head of his Department stating that
he is on leave without pay during the period for which
military pay is claimed.
NOTE.—When a public servant is a five-days-a-week (Monday to
Friday) worker, and while on leave without pay attends an annual
training camp or a continuous course of instruction, and the camp or
course begins or ends on a Saturday, the Public Service Commissioner
has approved of the granting of civilian pay to the trainee for such
Saturday and the Sunday following in addition to military pay (if any).
Where the camp or course begins or ends on a Sunday, the trainee
may likewise receive civilian pay for each Sunday, provided that in
either case the trainee resumes his civilian duties on the Monday or
first working day immediately following.

- Pay of rank will be issued to officers, warrant officers,
N.C.O.'s, and men while attending continuous courses of instruction
