COLONIAL OFFICE to THE CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION. [Answered by No. 10.]
Downing Street, 1 January, 1910.
your letter I AM directed by the Earl of Crewe to acknowledge the receipt of of the 15th of October,* and to express his Lordship's thanks for the arrangements which the Civil Service Commission are prepared to make for the examination of candidates for Colonial veterinary appointments.
2. Lord Crewe thinks that it would not be necessary that candidates nominated by him should be examined in subject No. 2 of the scheme for Board of Agriculture Inspectors; and they will consequently be required to present themselves for examina- tion only in subject 1, viz., Pathology and Bacteriology.
3. It is assumed that the Commissioners will not require that candidates for Colonial appointments should be within the limits of age laid down for Inspectors under the Board of Agriculture, since in some cases candidates otherwise suitable would be disqualified.
4. Lord Crewe proposes, with the Commissioners' concurrence, to inform such candidates on his list as are considered eligible for Colonial appointments that they must attend the examination to be held on the 22nd of March if they desire to be considered for an appointment. On the receipt of their replies, a letter will be addressed to you stating the names of the candidates nominated to attend the examination; the candidates will at the same time be instructed to apply to the Civil Service Commission for information as to the arrangements for holding the examination.
5. Lord Crewe regrets that in the circumstances of the case it is not possible to adopt the Commissioners' suggestion with regard to the defraying of the expenses of the examination; he has decided, therefore, that on this occasion candidates should be required to pay the fees themselves. Should it be found that candidates

are not prepared to attend the examination under these conditions, the matter will réceive further consideration.

CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION to COLONIAL OFFICE. (Received 12 January, 1910.)
[Answered by No. 13.]
Civil Service Commission, London, W., 11th January, 1910. WITH reference to your letter (34012/1909) of the 1st instant* respecting the examination of candidates for Colonial veterinary appointments, I am directed by the Civil Service Commissioners to state, for the information of the Earl of Crewe, that they note that these candidates are to be examined only in General Pathology and Bacteriology.
As the examination of these candidates is not under an Order in Council affecting the action of the Civil Service Commissioners, but will be held by this Department merely for the information of the Secretary of State, those Commis- sioners will make no enquiry into the age of the gentlemen who may be presented by the Colonial Office for examination in connexion with Colonial veterinary appointments.
The Commissioners would be glad to receive from your Department, at least four weeks before the date fixed for an examination, the names and addresses of the gentlemen whom the Secretary of State may wish to have examined, and will thereupon inform the candidates of the time and place of the examination. In these circumstances it will, perhaps, be more convenient if your Department, instead of instructing them to apply to this Office for information as to the arrangements for holding the examination, were to acquaint the candidates nominated to attend the examination that they would receive from this Office instructions as to when and where they would be required to attend and as to the time and manner of the pay. ment of the prescribed fee.
With regard to the amount of the fee payable by each candidate attending an examination, I am to state that the Commissioners are of opinion that it should be the same as that payable by the Board of Agriculture Inspectors, viz., £6, and they would be glad to learn that Lord Crewe has no objection to urge. It will be necessary for the Commissioners to submit the proposal to the Treasury for approval. In the meantime, I am to transmit two copies of a draft of a notification which, when the whole matter is settled, the Commissioners would, with Lord Crewe's concurrence, propose to issue to persons making enquiries, and the Commissioners would be glad if one copy of the draft could be returned with any alterations or amendments that your Department might desire to have made.

I have, &c.,
