 (1) Members of the Permanent Forces are bound to render continuous full time service.
Note: Permanent Forces means the Permanent Navy, the Regular Army and the Permanent Air Force: see subsection 4(1).

Flexible service determinations

 (3) A flexible service determination:
 (a) must be in writing; and
 (b) may be revoked or varied by the Chief of the Defence Force at any time; and
 (c) has effect subject to any terms and conditions (the flexible service terms and conditions) set out in the determination.
 (4) Flexible service terms and conditions may relate to remuneration, allowances, availability for duty outside the hours of duty or periods of duty set out in the determination or any other relevant matter.
 (5) A flexible service determination is not a legislative instrument.
