This Act has been repealed and is no longer in force. It is retained for historical reference.
These Regulations set the pay, travel and employment terms for officers appointed under the Canned Fruits Export Control Act. They prescribe salary bands and increments, cost‑of‑living adjustments tied to a retail price index, travel and overseas allowances (including a London representative), entertainment limits and the application of Commonwealth Public Service conditions. Affected parties are Board officers (including returned soldiers and union members in specified grades); the rules determine payroll costs, managerial discretion within pay ranges, and how allowances are calculated and paid.

Definitions.
4.—(1.) In these Regulations, unless the contrary intention appears—
“officer” means an officer appointed under the Act;
“returned soldier” has the same meaning as that expression has in the Commonwealth Public Service Act 1922-1947;
“the Act” means the Canned Fruits Export Control Act 1926-1938;
“the Secretary” means the Secretary to the Board.
(2.) In these Regulations, any reference to a Table shall be read as a reference to a Table in the Schedule to these Regulations.
Salaries of officers.
5.—(1.) An officer who occupies an office specified in Table A shall, subject to this regulation, be paid the minimum salary specified in that Table opposite to that office or, where a maximum salary is also so specified, such higher salary (not exceeding that maximum salary) as the Chairman determines.
(2.) Notwithstanding anything contained in the last preceding sub-regulation, an officer who occupies an office specified in Table C and is a member of an organization registered under the Commonwealth Conciliation and Arbitration Act 1904-1947 or a returned soldier shall be paid the minimum salary specified in that Table opposite to that office, or, where a maximum salary is also so specified, such higher salary (not exceeding the maximum salary) as the Chairman determines.
(3.) Where, in any determination under the Arbitration (Public Service) Act 1920-1934, marginal increases have been granted to officers or any class of officers in the Commonwealth Public Service, the Chairman may, subject to this regulation, apply as on and from the first pay period commencing on or after the twenty-eighth day of August, 1947, such marginal increases to officers who are members of an organization registered under the Commonwealth Conciliation and Arbitration Act 1904-1947 or who are returned soldiers.
(4.) The Chairman may, if he is satisfied with the conduct, diligence and efficiency of an officer, grant to the officer such annual increments (if any) as are specified in Table A or Table C, as the case may be, opposite to the office occupied by that officer, but so that the annual salary of the officer shall not exceed the maximum salary so specified.
(5.) Where an officer is appointed to the London office of the Board, that portion of his salary which is paid in England shall be paid in English currency.
(6.) The rates of pay and conditions of employment of persons engaged in the United Kingdom for employment shall be those prescribed for that class of employment in the High Commissioner (Staff) Regulations made under the High Commissioner Act 1909-1945.

(2.) Where the index number for the six months ending on the thirty-first day of March or the thirtieth day of September in any year is less than 81.7 salaries payable in pursuance of these Regulations shall, unless in the case of any particular officer the Chairman otherwise
directs, as from the commencement of the first fortnightly pay period beginning in the month of May or the month of November (as the case may be) next following, be reduced by the amount shown in the following table opposite the index number group within which the index number falls :—
