Members recommend an increase in the salaries of these officers following terms:-

The Committee recommend that the pay of the Harbour Master be placed at $5,640, and that of the Assistant Harbour Master at $3,180, these sums being considered as equivalent to the pay of the corresponding officials in Singapore.

With reference to the latter office, the Committee recommend as an alternative that he receive $3,000 a year, and be appointed Superintendent of the Water Police, receiving as such free quarters at Tsim-sha-tsui.

I am of opinion that the alternative suggestion as regards the Assistant Harbour Master is deserving of consideration.
