The Stores at Headquarters R.H.K.D.F. have to remain open for long hours and one additional post of storekeeper is required to permit the introduction of shift duties. The Administrative Officer and the Force R.Q.M.S. will both be going on long leave during the year and a Temporary Staff Officer is required for four months. These changes together with normal increments account for the increase of $20,700 in the Personal Emoluments vote.
