Government House,
Hongkong, 30th December, 1903.
Sir,
In reply to your despatch No.888 of the 29th October last I have the honour to transmit for your information a list of officers to whom it is proposed to conveyance allowances.
I may state that there was no intention of abolishing such allowances in the case of officers who have to travel in the execution of their duties.
Dr. Koch has been informed that he may continue to draw the allowance as is done by other Assistants in the Medical Department.
It is presumed that Dr. Koch will now receive his travelling allowance from the date of his arrival in the colony;
No.591 expressed in 42576, say that it is not quite clear from the present despatch whether which of the Asst. Surgs. are to receive the conveyance allowance, since only 3 out of 4 are mentioned in the encl.
I may explain that in the case referred to in 36995, Mr Lucas was not intended to negative the grant of a conveyance allowance, but par 3 of that letter was rather intended to negative house or other similar emolument equivalent to salary, & not to refer to allowances which it was understood were always granted to officers required to travel in Hongkong.
By an oversight this did not go to Dr. Koch before. W. Baume has had a letter from Trinidad showing that his return to that flying is impracticable.
Seen. Another case I do not see it.
