Hong Kong Police Force & Lord Elgin regrets

that it is

not

possible to make

any payment

to him in addition

to the payment beyond that

which he has already

received.

3. It is said

that Mr. McDonald

is mistaken in supposing

that he would have been entitled to pension if

he had remained in

the service until

1st July 1950.

A Police

Officer is required

to complete 25

years'

resident service before

he becomes eligible for

pension.

Absence on

C.A. 740

leave is counted

as resident service,

to the extent of one

half. But Mr. McDonald's

total

police service

at the

retirement

date was only 8 years &

months.

I am,

therefore,
