MOR OF

The question of Mr. Bullin's salary

in this post gave rise to considerable correspondence as

he was not satisfied with the terms of his appointment,

but it was finally settled by Mr. Lyttelton's Despatch

No. 57 of the 4th. April, 1905, approving a recommendation

made by me that he should be allowed to draw the maximum

salary of his post.

It is unfortunate that at the

time when this recommendation was made his inefficiency

had not been brought to my notice. I now transmit copies

Acting Registrar-General to Colonial

Secretary of 2nd. July, 1902.

Registrar-General to Colonial Secret-

-ary of 13th. June, 1905.

Registrar-General to Colonial Secret-

-ary of 4th. January, 1906.

of the correspondence noted in

the margin on the subject of that

inefficiency.

It would appear from this corres-

-pondence that Mr. Bullin has been from the first unfitted

to perform the duties of First Clerk in the Registrar-

-General's Office and as after enquiry I am satisfied that

there is no post available or likely to become available

which he could fill with advantage I consider that the

interests of the public service require that his services

should be dispensed with.

7.

The usual course in such a case

would be to bring the question of the suspension of the

Officer
