I have examined the accompanying Ordinance intituled
An Ordinance to amend the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinances, 1908
and 1921,
and I am of opinion that the Ordinance is one which is not contrary to the
Governor's Instructions.
2.
The object of this Ordinance is to include within the scheme
of the Widows' and Or hans' Pension Fund all European members of the
police force, and all officers of the Government, other than police
officers, who are appointed, either permanently, or on agreement for
perioda exceeding two years, and who receive at least $420 per annu.
3.
Apart from the case of the police force, which is dealt
with below, an officer who is appointed on an agreement for a term
of years does not come within the scope of the rincipal Ordinance,
