The members of such forces who serve overseas are eligible for a mufti allowance of £l2/10/- subsequent to discharge. The committee discussed these details, and considered that the differentiation between service in New Zealand and service overseas was difficult to understand, in view of the fact that mufti allowance was available to a serviceman on his return to civil life, and it was decided to ask the Government on what principle the distinction, represented by £5 more for the overseas service man. was made.
