AIR FORCE
CIVIL ARREST OF MEMBERS
An amendment to the Royal New Zealand Air Force Regulations gazetted last night makeo the procedure in respect to tlv< civil arrest of members of the Air Fol'ce similar in the main to that of members of the Army and Navy. The amended regulations authorise the appropriate Air Force authorities to issue to the police a warrant for the arrest of any member of the Air Force who may be suspected of having committed any offence for which he was liable to be tried and punished by Air Force law. Additional safety requirements in the case of regular commercial air lines are provided for by amended air navigation regulations, also gazetted last night. The regulations bring the powers of the Minister in Charge of Aviation into line with those of corresponding authorities overseas.
