Explanatory Note,

Heretofore, the pay and allowances which members of the Special Constabulary were eligible to receive have been equated to Police Force rates, and not to the rates applicable to the Royal Hong Kong Defence Force and the Essential Services Corps. This is now felt to be inequitable, and the effect of these regulations is to make members of the Special Constabulary, when called out for active service or in training, eligible to receive the same rates of pay and allowances as other members of the emergency services would be eligible to receive under the circumstances.
