Since the publication of our Report No. 2, a number of new grades have been created by Government and we have been asked to advise on the appropriate salary scales for them. In addition, we have been asked to give advice on a number of new ranks proposed for certain existing grades.
Our recommendations for each of these new grades and ranks are given below, listed in alphabetical order. The group to which we consider each grade should be assigned, for example, school certificate or matriculation, is listed in Table J.
