The Committee further suggest that in the case of civil servants of the Crown holding offices in the more unhealthy Colonies, the right to receive superannuation allowance might accrue, in case of retirement from bad health, after seven years.
My Lords, Concuring in the recommendations of the Committee, are pleased by this order to direct and declare, that the offices enumerated by the Committee shall be added to those appointed in the Minute of 14th June, 1859, to come within the 4th clause of the Act of 1859, and that they shall be classified, as regards the number of years to be added in computing the amount of retiring allowance, according to the recommendations of the Committee.
As regards the period at which, in the more unhealthy of the British Colonies, such as the West Coast of Africa, and some of the West India Islands, the right to receive superannuation allowance should accrue in case of retirement from bad health, my Lords are of opinion that it is not expedient at present to lay down any general rule, but that the cases of such offices should be dealt with under the 4th clause as they arise.
(But as to the West African Service, see Chapter XVIII of the Colonial Regulations, Part VII, of this publication. A Bill is now before Parliament in amendment of the Superannuation Act of 1859 which will enable the Treasury to count two years' service in an "unhealthy climate" as three years for pension purposes.—Ed. O. Ü. I, Feb. 1875.)
TREASURY MINUTE. 17th December, 1864.
My Lords have before them their Minute of 14th June, 1859, the 4th clause of which regulates the granting of allowances by way of compensation, under the 7th sec. of the Act 27 Vict., cap. 26, to persons on the occasion of abolition of office.
By that Minute a specified number of years is to be added to the actual number which persons may have served, without reference to the period of life which they may have attained.
Upon further consideration of this subject, my Lords are of opinion that it would not be proper to adhere too strictly to this rule in the case of persons who may be advanced in years, and who, from that circumstance, might not remain much longer in the public service; and that, in such cases, they should give themselves the free exercise of their discretion in fixing the number of years which should be respectively added to the actual service, according to the view which they may take of the circumstances of each particular case.
My Lords are, therefore, pleased to declare that in the case of persons who, if they served the time granted by that Minute for compensation, would be over 60 years, and who may retire from office under the circumstances above referred to, they will not consider themselves bound by that Minute, but that they will decide upon each particular case according to the view they may take, after a full consideration of all the circumstances attending it.
