Inspectorate to complete the gazetted establishment.

Both officers

make recommendations on the same grounds as those mentioned in my

previous despatch.

The first officer recommended is Inspector Norman Burgess

Fraser, aged 42 years, who joined the Police Force on 4th April, 1928.

His full record has been lost, but I have recently commended him for

meritorious service. He is 43rd on the Seniority List of European

Inspectors and his present salary is £475 per annum. I recommend his

promotion with effect from 1st April, 1947. He has recently resumed duty.

In accordance with the rule for the assessment of the point of entry in

the salary scale set out in my despatch No. 228 of 13th December, 1946,

his salary on that date would be £570 per annum.

the reoccupation of the Colony, he has been thrice commended by the

Commissioner of Police for meritorious service. He is 48th on the

Seniority List of European Inspectors and his present salary is £475

per annum. I recommend his promotion with effect from 1st April, 1947,

and on promotion he would be eligible for a salary of £570 per annum.

I should be grateful for early telegraphic approval of my

recommendations so that they may be put into effect on 1st April, 1947.
