10. Ranks and ratings lent from the Royal Navy are permitted to defer
15 days' leave for each completed period of 6 months' service—2 days per
month being allowed for shorter periods—and to take such deferred leave as
Foreign Service Leave on their return to the United Kingdom. Except as
provided in paragraph 11, any leave taken in excess of leave which can be
taken locally by R.N. Officers and Men, without affecting Foreign Service
Leave (viz., 12 days), should be deducted from accumulated leave.
11. Ranks and ratings serving at the R.A.N. College are granted leave
at the discretion of the Commanding Officer, in accordance with powers conferred
upon him under regulation 39 of the Naval College Regulations.
In the cases of R.N. ranks and ratings attached to the College who are
entitled to accumulate leave to be taken on return to the United Kingdom,
a maximum of 30 days per annum may be allowed to accumulate, and a
maximum of 19 days' leave per annum may be taken in Australia without
affecting leave accumulation.
The R.N. rank or rating at the College is thus allowed 7 days' local leave
(not affecting accumulation) in addition to the 12 days normally allowed to a
R.N. rank or rating serving in any other Ship or Establishment (vide paragraph
10). .
It should be clearly understood that any leave over 19 days per annum,
taken under regulation 39 of the Naval College Regulations, will be deducted
from Foreign Service Leave.
12. Ratings recruited in the United Kingdom who retain their right to
return passages to the United Kingdom at Commonwealth Government
expense are permitted to defer leave, to be taken as Foreign Service Leave
on their return to the United Kingdom, under the same conditions as R.N.
ratings (vide paragraph 10).
13. At the end of each Leave Year, or on a rating being returned to the
United Kingdom for discharge, or to the Royal Navy for reversion, the Ship
in which the rating is borne at the end of the Leave Year, or prior to transfer
to Cerberus, should calculate, from the various Leave notations appearing on
the rating's Leave History Sheet, the number of days' Foreign Service Leave
due, and make a notation accordingly on the Leave History Sheet. This
notation should be initialed by the rating concerned, as an indication that he
is aware of the amount of leave due and accepts the accuracy of the notation.
14. Care is to be taken in Cerberus that the Leave History Sheet of every
rating returned to the United Kingdom for discharge to the Shore, or foi
reversion to the Royal Navy, bears a notation duly initialed, showing the
amount of Foreign Service Leave due.
15. Should the necessary information regarding leave taken by a Royal
Navy rating, or rating recruited in the United Kingdom, throughout the
whole of his Service in the Royal Australian Navy, be not available in the
Ship or Establishment in which he is serving, the Commanding Officer of such
Ship or Establishment should forward to Navy Office the Leave History
Sheet of the rating concerned, in order that same may be brought up to date
from Office records.
16. Navy Order No. 310/1921 is hereby cancelled.
