Pension Minute, something must be effected, although great difficulties could be often great obstacles to tracing out satisfactorily the birth-place of persons affected by the Minute.
8. The difficulties of dealing with the question of race are noted by Dr. [Surname] under this head to his report.
9. The question has been raised (See Minutes fr. 14) of making the practice, in this particular, uniform at Ceylon, the Straits, and Hongkong. This raises the further question whether, if good for these Colonies, it could not apply also to Mauritius, and to Jamaica and other intertropical Colonies. But so far as I am aware, in no Colony except the West African Settlements (Col. Regis Ch 430) is much a distinction made.

Pension regulations; and the rules in all the intertropical Colonies (except St. Helena) whose pensions the Secretary of State controls, have to be altered in a vital point if such a distinction is to be made.
10. The question was considered in 1876, when the addition of a "Climate" bounty was under consideration in Mauritius; and the Climate bounty was applied to all Colonial Officers. Another instance is afforded by the I.A. case, in Pension Claims, when the Colonial Office proposed to exclude a man from Climate bounty on the ground that he was a native of Pondicherry (and a black man); but the argument was overruled, – and pension, including Climate bounty, allowed.
