cessation of performances of the higher duties, except as provided hereunder
:—
(a) Where an officer in receipt of the allowance has performed the
higher duties for twelve months continuously, and is granted
sick leave for a period not exceeding two weeks in any twelve
months, he is to receive the allowance whilst on sick leave,
provided that on returning from leave he again takes up the
higher duties ; also provided that any absence, except on
recreation leave, emergency leave, or leave granted to an
officer under Commonwealth Public Service Regulation 88
to enable him to fulfil the course of training prescribed by the
Defence Act, during the period of twelve months from the
date of taking up the higher duties, should not be counted
in arriving at the date on which the officer becomes eligible
for sick leave of absence at the higher rate.
(b) Where an officer in receipt of the allowance is granted recreation
leave or emergency leave, payment of the allowance will be
continued during the officer's absence, provided that on returning
from leave he again takes up the higher duties.
Where an officer in receipt of the allowance is granted leave
with pay under Commonwealth Public Service Regulation 88
to enable him to fulfil the course of training prescribed by the
Defence Act, payment of the allowance will be continued
during the officer's absence, and if his pay on account of
Naval or Military training is less than his ordinary civil pay,
he will be entitled to receive the difference plus allowance,
provided that payment of the higher duty allowance should
not be continued beyond the date the officer would have
ceased to perform the higher duties had he not been absent."
