23. If in any of the employing Colonies, no retiring pension is payable, or a rate of pension less than the Imperial rate, the officer must be a loser to that extent. He must not claim from any Colony, from whose service he has been promoted, a rate higher than that authorised by the Imperial Pensions Act.

24. In some Colonies, a certain number of years are added to an officer's service, by way of bonus, in calculating his retiring pension. An officer promoted from such a Colony shall lose that bonus. An officer retiring from the service of such a Colony shall only be allowed it in case he shall have remained in that service for the time necessary to qualify him for receiving it.

25. If an officer does not remain ten years in the colonial service from which he retires, his salary shall, for the purpose of calculating his retiring pension, be taken on the average of the last ten years. The same rule will be applied in calculating the payment to be made to him in respect of any intermediate employment.

26. It may happen that an officer receiving a higher salary, without a right to pension, may be transferred to a Colony in which he will receive a lower salary with a right to pension. In this case the first salary shall be taken not only for the purpose of calculating the pension, but also for the purpose of calculating the deduction, as being of the same amount as the second.

A memorandum containing some supposed cases in illustration of Rules 20 to 26 is annexed, as also a table showing the rates of pension payable to the public officers of the Colony.

Third employment 10 800 1/8 × 800 = 400 0 0 266 13 4 133 6 8 166 13 4 Total Service... 30

The case of A. B. shews the simple application of the 20th and 21st Rules, in Colonies which simply follow the Imperial Rules.

That of C. D. shews the application of Rule 25 in reducing the rate of salary to the average of 10 years (here to £880.)

If in these two cases the first employing Colony does not grant any retiring pension, then, under the 23rd Rule, the pension of A. B. (for twenty years' service) will be reduced to £466 13s. 4d, and that of C. D., (for four years' service) to £203 6s. 8d.

Again, if in these cases the last employing Colony be Ceylon or Hongkong, in which officers of ten years' standing are allowed an addition of 5 years to their actual service in calculating their pensions, then, under the 24th Rule, A. B. (having served more than ten years) would receive an addition to his pension of (5/60 × £1,000—) £83 6s. 8d.; but C. D., having served only 4 years, would receive no such bonus.

The case of E. F. illustrates the 22nd Rule.

The case of G. H. shows the effect of the 23rd and 26th Rules on an officer who has served in a Colony where no retiring pension is allowed.
