Par:9 for consideration.
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch
No.277 of the 21st of December enclosing a Memorial from the Colonial Surgeon
upon the Staff of his Department and their duties.
2. You state that you have appointed a Committee to enquire into the
Medical Department and that you will in due course forward their report for
my consideration. In the meantime it may save future correspondence and assist
you in framing your final recommendations, if at this stage I communicate to you
the views which I have formed upon the paragraphs in the report
