Approves of the appointment of Mr. 131
Hudson reported in No. 56; pointe out that no provision was made for this appointment at the time the scheme of sterling salaries was sub- mitted.
Submits drafts of clauses to be added to the Pension Regulations of the Colony in accordance with the definite rules laid down by the Secretary of State with regard to the counting of free quarters for pension purposes.
131
Expresses the hope that the broader 132
principle of exchange compensation allowed in the case of higher officials may be applied to him; if this can- not be done, requests that he may be given the non-pensionable addition of 25 per cent. of salary.
Transmits copy of No. 60, and enquires 133
if he approves of permitting the non- peusionable allowance to be drawn by officers on leave, and what payment should be made to Mr. Gregory.
Forwards copy of a letter from Mr. 133
Barn-Murdoch, Chief Forest Officer, arging that his salary should be paid to him at the current rate of exchange; expresses opinion that Mr. Barn- Murdoch and others in a like position are entitled to receive their salaries at the current rate of exchange.
Concurs that Mr. Burn-Murdoch and every officer similarly situated should be paid at a monthly rate of exchange on the same system hitherto followed in regard to exchange compensation; suggests that the proposal to pay sterling salaries at a monthly rate of exchange should be further considered before final decision is taken.
