10. Section 26 of the principal Ordinance requires dvery officer and volunteer to take the oath, or make the eeclaration, of allegiance. It is not intended to require members of the auxiliary units to do this, except when they are called up for actual military service. This will be provided in the regulations. Section 10 of this Ordinance, accordingly, makes the general obliga- tion to take the oath, or make the declaration, subject to any regulations relating to members of auxiliary units. It also enables the oath or declaration of al- legiance to be taken or made before the Adjutant, or before any officer of His Majesty's regular forces attached to the corps. This is desirable because, speak- ing generally, the term "officer" in the principal Ordinance means an officer holding a volunteer com- mission.
