Mr. Gompertz has been allowed to draw half the salary of his substantive post and half the former dollar salary which attached to the appointment of Attorney General.
I am of opinion that he should have been allowed to draw half salary at the rate of $1,500 per annum.
5.
Mr. Gompertz has asked permission to draw the full salary of the Attorney General from the date of his appointment (1st November, 1906) to the date of Mr. Rees Davies beginning to draw the half salary of his appointment. In the circumstances I see no objection to making an exception to Rule 107 of the Colonial Regulations for which there are precedents and I would ask your authority to grant Mr. Gompertz's request.
6.
Neither of the points mentioned above have been submitted to Sir F. Nathan owing to his indisposition.
I have the honour to be,
My Lord,
Your Lordship's most obedient,
humble servant,
Officer Administering the Government.
