APPENDIX B

All Examples are calculated using Home to Base as a journey of 10 miles.

Example 1 - Officer Attends an Appointment Travelling from Home then subsequently Travels to Base:

Actual Mileage: Home to Appointment 5 miles
                          Appointment to Base 10 miles
                          Total Mileage 15 miles

Basis of Claim: Total Mileage - Home to Base = Additional Mileage
Additional Mileage to be Claimed 15 miles - 10 miles = 5 miles

Example 2 - Officer Attends an Appointment Travelling from Base then subsequently Travels to Home:

Actual Mileage: Base to Appointment 10 miles
                          Appointment to Home 5 miles
                         Total Mileage 15 miles

Basis of Claim: Total Mileage - Base to Home = Additional Mileage
Additional Mileage to be Claimed 15 miles - 10 miles = 5 miles

Example 3 - Officer Attends an Appointment Travelling from Home and subsequently returns Home:

Actual Mileage: Home to Appointment 20 miles
                         Appointment to Home 20 miles
                         Basis of Claim: Total Mileage - Home to Base and Return = Additional Mileage 31
                         Total Mileage 40 miles

Basis of Claim: Total Mileage - Home to Base and Return = Additional Mileage
Additional Mileage to be Claimed 40 miles - 20 miles = 20 miles.
