One of the principal increases, it will be observed is, under the head Salaries, Allowances, and Contingencies, amounting to no less than $28,790
New appointments which have been sanctioned by the Secretary of State account for an increase in Salaries of $18,075
Amongst these are included the Staff of the New Observatory, $4,896
In the Surveyor General's Department, an additional Clerk of Works, and a Land Surveyor engaged for 3 years only $4,154
The Chief Sanitary Inspector and additions to his Staff, 3,840
An Assistant to the Government Marine Surveyor, 2,400
An Aide-de-Camp to His Excellency the Governor, 1,000
A Head Gardener for the Botanical Gardens, 800
Other new appointments which have been considered indispensable by the Governor and Executive Council shew an increase in salaries of $6,684. But, against these different increases, must be set off reductions which have been already effected, or which it is proposed to make, causing a saving of $13,398.
Increments earned, as well as increases to salaries and personal allowances which have already been sanctioned shew an increase of $6,322, whilst those which are recommended amount to $3,444. Deducting from these the increments and personal allowances which have lapsed ($3,196) leaves a nett increase under this head of $6,570.
▼
Another increase, which is however only apparent, arises from the salaries and allowances of certain overseers of works being included in the Surveyor General's Staff.
