Miss Gutierrez was dismissed in 1948 after
four years service. After considerable discussion,
the Treasury agreed exceptionally to a gratuity of £1 34. 5s. 8d. i.e. three and a half times her monthly salary.
2. A suggestion was made earlier this year for a local staff pension scheme but this was still at a preliminary stage of consideration. Even if it had been agreed in principle it is doubtful that a scheme could have been introduced for some months.
