: the Government has not yet been able to utilise. Up to a recent date temporary employment was found for both Mr. Curwen and Mr. Bullin, and it has been possible therefore to save any material loss to the public revenues owing to their non-employment in the offices which they were engaged to fill.
I have now, provisionally and subject to your approval, appointed Mr. Curwen to a clerkship in the Post Office, allowing him to draw the same salary which he drew as Master of the Reformatory. It may be possible to find him other employment later on which will carry with it some slight increase of salary, but meanwhile he has expressed himself satisfied with the arrangement which I have already provisionally made.
I have similarly appointed Mr. Bullin to be First Clerk in the Registrar-General's Office, in which a vacancy was recently created by the resignation of Mr. Wong. The salary which I have tentatively attached to the post is $1,380 rising to $1,800 by annual increments of $120.

I have now the honour to enquire whether you approve of the abolition of the Reformatory and its re-establishment as a British School; of the tentative agreement which I have arrived at with Mr. Ho Tung as regards the Kowloon School; and the arrangements which I have made to utilise the services of Messrs. Curwen and Bullin. If you approve I have the honour to suggest that the consent of Mr. Belilios, who is at present in England, should be obtained to the proposed establishment of the Victoria British School, in the title of which the Government would of course be glad to associate his name. Mr. Irving would be able to satisfy him.
