6. It would appear that a form of pension arrangements based on the special West Indies model might be considered appropriate to the circumstances in Hong Kong and insofar as it would provide the more beneficial arrangements to all judges in the Colony and not only those who might be appointed from the local Bar, there would be no difficulty as between one judge and another. It would be for consideration whether it would be appropriate to go so far as to provide the more generous constant for judges as opposed to the public service in general as was done in the West Indies.

1. A revised scheme, based on the West Indies model but saving the one six-

hundredth constant, would enable a judge to earn half pay pension after 15 years service, and two-thirds pay pension after 23 years service.

8. Such a scheme, because of the weighting given to pension earning in the

first ten years of service, would also take due account of the problem which would otherwise arise in cases where an appointment from the local Bar took place in the middle life and too late to satisfy the minimum qualification clause of the normal pensions scheme.
