Three years, all of which will be probationary. This and the following paragraph do not apply in the case of an officer transferred from the permanent establishment of another Colony.
Although it must clearly be understood that the Government is and will be under no obligation to provide further employ- ment, the office of Assistant Superin- tendent of Prisons, Prison Department is normally regarded as of a permanen nature, and in the ordinary course of events if the service and conduct of the officer is entirely satisfactory to the Government, and if he is considered in every way fit, medically and otherwise, to continue in office, and if replace- ment by engagement of some other person would become necessary but for his reten- tion, the prospects are that the Govern- ment will retain his services, if he so desires either by transfer to the per- manent establishment, with consequential benefits and expectations or by re- engagement for a further period under a fresh agreement. In the absence of express agreement with or decision of the Government to the contrary, any continued service after the expiry of the period of engagement will be monthly.
