THE HONGONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 29TH NOVEMBER, 1862. 335
14. The Pension shall be computed upon the Salary of the permanent Office held by a Public Servant at the time of his retirement, provided he shall have held the same Office for at least Three Years, and that the Salary of the same shall not have been revised during that time: otherwise the Pension shall be calculated upon the average annual amount of Salary received by such Person for Three Years next preceding the coinmencement of such Pension.
15. In case of reduction or abolition of Office, Temporary Allowances may be assigned agreeably to the specified rates; on condition however that the parties receiving the same will be liable to be re-called into the service, and with the understanding that they are to be re-employed as opportunity may occur in preference to new applicants for Office.
16. The period of Service upon which the Superannuation Allowance of all Officers appointed to the Public Service, taking leave of absence in the regular manner with abatement of Salary will be calculated, will be at the rate of One Month for every Two Months of such leave.
17. If any person receiving a Pension under this Minute should be appointed to fill any Office in any Public Department, such Pension shall cease to be paid for any Period subsequent to such Ap- pointment, if the annual amount of the Profits of the Office to which he shall be appointed shall be equal to those of the Office formerly held by him, and in case it shall not be equal to those of his former Office then no more of such Pension shall be paid to him than what with the Salary of his new Appointment shall be equal to the Profits of his former Office.
18. Should the time of Service not warrant the assignment of an annual Allowance, a gratuity may be granted after the rate of One Month's Salary for each Year of Service.
