The additional post of Clerk is required for the General Office. The new post of Storekeeper is required so that better control may be exercised over the increasing quantities of operational and training equipment.

One additional post of Training Officer and 2 new posts of Assistant Training Officer are provided so that the present 5,000 members may be trained up to the required standard of proficiency. They are also required so that centrally controlled training may be introduced for all recruits, who are now being enrolled at the rate of 900 a year.

The 2 additional Watchmen are provided in order to relieve existing Watchmen at the two Training Centres from almost continuous overtime work.

The further reduction under Uniforms and Accoutrements results partly from completion of the change over from MK. II to MK. IV steel helmets and partly because it should not be necessary to purchase any webbing equipment during the coming year.
