Dear Mr. Caine,

A member of my staff called upon you recently in
connection with Colonial (Hong Kong) Police Pension Re-
gulations for Non-Europeans and I understand that you confirmed that those Regulations do not provide for
the payment of any benefits to the dependants or
legal personal representatives of a deceased policeman, whether he dies whilst serving or after discharge (cf.
Section 2 of the Superannuation Act,1909).
Our own Regulations for the Police serving in the
Naval Establishments at Hong Kong were based on yours
and are similar in this respect.
We have under consideration an application for financial assistance to the dependants of an Indian
Police Sergeant, pensioned in July last on attaining
the age limit, who died five months later, having
drawn but a very small amount of pension.
