RETIRING AGE FOR CIVIL SERVANTS
Consultations between the government and the staff associations
on the question of revising the retiring age of civil servants are
proceeding constructively, the Colonial Secretary, the Hon. Sir Hugh
Norman-Walker, said today.
He told the Legislative Council that a great deal of goodwill
and understanding had been shown during the negotiations, and he hoped
that an agreement would shortly be reached.
Debate in the council on the motion concerning the retiring
age of civil servants would be resumed once the consultations had concluded
and after the agreement had been endorsed by the Governor-in-Council,
Sir Hugh said.
