The Grades enumerated in the scheme are, in the main, similar to those proposed for the Straits Settle- ments, and the system of giving triennial increments has been adhered to as far as possible.
In the case of European Officers whose salaries have only very recently been remodelled owing to the recommendations of the unofficial Salaries Committee, the salaries as recommended by that Committee have been taken as a basis for the proposed Sterling salaries, and no great increase is now proposed.
