Sir Robert Black leaves the Colony on retirement on the

1st April. His unofficials are particularly anxious that the

changes (which have been agreed by Sir David Trench, the new

Governor) should be announced before then. While it is somewhat

unusual to announce changes so soon before a Governor's departure,

I see advantage in giving the new Governor an opportunity of

bringing new blood into the Legislature early in his term of

office.

I recommend that you approve.
