40. An officer may, during periods of resident service, remit through the Crown Agents for Oversea Governments and Administrations in single equal monthly instalments, a portion of his salary for payments to any bank, firm, or person he may name. Such payments shall not, as a rule, exceed half his salary, exclusive of duty pay and local allowances, but in exceptional cases the Governor may authorise remittances in excess of half salary. Requests for such payments may be made to the Crown Agents direct, before the departure of the officer from the United Kingdom, and will then remain operative until (1) altered or cancelled by the Territorial Government concerned through which all subsequent communications on the subject shall be sent, or (2) the officer comes on leave or his leave certificate reaches the Crown Agents.
