Sir,

GENERAL POST OFFICE, LONDON,

25th May 1916.

23638

REC REG 20 MAY 16

I am directed by the Postmaster General to refer to

your letter of the 28th of October, 1910, No. 32,262/1910,

concerning the transfer from Hong Kong to the Imperial Post

Office of financial responsibility for the British Post

Office Agencies in China from the 1st of January 1911.

I am to acquaint you, for the information of the

Secretary of State for the Colonies, that in view of the

uncertainty as to the future of the Agencies no steps have

been taken to transfer any of the staff employed at the Agencies to the establishment of the Imperial Civil Service by granting them Civil Service Certificates although some of the staff were regarded as established officers of the Hong

Kong Civil Service.

It is nevertheless recognised that those members who were entitled to pensions or gratuities under their conditions of service with the Hong Kong Government have a title to some pension or gratuities in respect of their service since the 1st of January 1911.

In view of the objections which still obtain to their formal transfer to the Imperial Service and of the difficulties involved in the application of the Superannuation Acts to the staff, it has been suggested by the Lords

Commissioners

Under Secretary of State,

COLONIAL OFFICE.
