EUROPEANS.
Leare at the expiration of Five Years' Service.
1 Any European Member of the Police Force may, after each period of five years' ser- vice, qu claiming his return passage, under 16 of Ordinance 11 of 1900, apply through the Captain Superintendent of Police to His Excellency the Governor for permission to return to the service within a period not exceeding nine months.
2. Should this application be approved, the applicant will receive half pay, during his absence, and a certificate entitling him to a return passage to the Colony within the period specified: subject to his passing a satisfactory Medical Examination about three months before the expiration of his leave as to his fitness to return to a tropical climate.
3. The Applicant shall enter into a bond for the refund of the half pay, or the difference between his pension and half pay as the case may be, drawn after his leaving the Colony, in case he does not return at the period specified.
This period may nevertheless be extended by the Secretary of State for the Colonies, on such ground as may to him be satisfactory, and such extension shall be deemed to be leave originally granted within the meaning of the above Sections 1, 2, and 3, anything therein con-
ained to the contrary notwithstanding,
5. Such leave shall enable the applicant to count his previous service as regard the time of service acquired before a pension is granted, and each period of two months on leave shall count as one month's service towards the computation of a pension.
6. On the Applicant's return to the Colony, he shall be reinstated in his relative position in the Force, and he will be sworn in for a further period of five years' service under § § 8 and
13 of Ordinance 11 of 1900.
7. If at the expiration of five years' service leave is refused on the ground that the Applicant's service cannot then be spared, he shall be allowed leave at the earliest suitable date, and the time clapsing between the expiration of the above mentioned five years' service and the date of his going on leave, shall be calculated towards the period of five years' services to be served by him on his return from such leave, If the time of year at which a period of five years' service expires is on consideration of health unsuitable for leave to be taken, th Applicant may, by permission, go on leave at any time within six months from such expiration of service, and this interval shall count towards his next period of five years' service.
8. The period of time spent on leave will not count towards the calculation of time cons- tituting any term of five years' service for bonus or passage.
Note: Under Section 2 he is entitled to a return passage, 2nd. class, per Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's Mail Steamer at the cost of the Colony, subject to his passing a satisfactory Medical Examination about 3 months before the expiration of his leave as to his fitness to return to a tropical climate.
