My Lords advert to their Minutes of the 10th
August last, respecting the revision of the esta-
blishment of the several Public Offices, and also
ih regard t the formation of a Superannuation
.I.:und, by a per centage deduction to be made
from the salaries of certain public officers. Their
Lordships having before them the returns made
iu pursuance of the said •Nlinutes, will hereafter
communicate their determination or opinion
thereon to each office, so far as the establish-
OlPnt of such office may be concerned. But seve-
ral rules of general application having arisen out
of a review of the Minutes referred to, and upon
a consideration of the several returns, my Lords
are phased to direct a copy of the follow;ng
?odes and Regulations to be transmitted to the
several Public Offices, for their information and
gaidatice so far as they may be respectively can-
t ernect

Ist. The increase of salary for length of service according tb.
the existing scales having been suspended by their Lordships'
Is-linute of the April last, they are now pleased to
direct that all the• intli7iduals who, according to those scales,
tteame entitled to increased salary far length of service pre-
viously to the termination of the Chri3tmas quarter of 132 L
should he permitted to receive such increase from the period
from which, under the former establishment of the office, they
!we:tale entitled thereto, and that from the commencement of
the year 132 the new est.o.ltsnment should tat. Flare. 11,,t
every perspr. will retain the salary to which he may have been
entitled at the termination of the year 1821, until he may under
the new establishment become entitled to a larger salary.

2.41. That those persons who are in the progress of a period
at the close of whi:th they would, under the former establish-
ment, be entitled to increase of allowance for length of service,
Shall not lose the benefit of that part of thq period which has
actually expired ; but at the expiration of the period which
would have entitled them according to the former establish-
' inert to increased salary, they shall receive in addition to their
preont salary and allowances such proportion of the increase
of salary as will correspond with that part of the period which
bad expired up to the end of the Christmas quarter of 1321.
3d. That the application of any new scale for the payment of
salaiies in any office according to classes, shall in no case give
to any person while he remains in tb;,. class to which he now
bOongs„ any increase of salary at an earlier period than he
would have obtained it according to the scale which existed
immediately previous to the termination of the Christmas quar-
ter of 1621.

4th. That if by any new classification or arrangement of
clerks, or if by any succession to vacancies within a period of
three years from the commencement of 1822, any clerk shall he
placed in a class above that in which is now serving, and to
which he would not have attained but for the new classifica-
tion of the office, or for the vacancies occasioned by the reduc-
tions now made, and if the minimum salary of the class to
which such clerk may be promoted should exceed the salary of
which he may at the time of the promotion be in the actual
uceipt, such clerk shall not at once be entitled to the minimum
rate of salary of the class to which he may be advanced, but
shall receive an annual increase to the amount of his present
salary, equal to the annual increase applicable to the class to
which he is advanced until the termination of three years from
the - time of his promotion, when he shall be placed upon the
minimum salary of the class,, unless he shall have attrdned a
higher salary by the progrssive annual increases, and from
henceforth he shall receive the annual increase of salary appli-
'agile to the class to which he may be promoted until he reaches
its. maximum.

sth. That upon vacancies occurring in any of the superior
Ana in any office, the siwations shall not be supplied by
seniority only; but the fittest individual shall be selected to
succeed by the heads of the department in which the vacancy
:nay, occur.

Och. In the cases in which clerks upon the establishment of
say of ice are discontinued in consequence of the present re-
ditctions, their Lordships would be disposed to grant to them
following allowances :
If they have served less than three years, a gratuity of one
yomr's psy.

if three years and under five, a gratuity of two years' pay.
If they have served five years, and under ten years, an an.
nusl allowance not exceeding one-third of their salaries, until.
otherwise provided for in the public-service.
If ten years and under twenty years, an allowance not exceed-
lag one-half of their salaries.
if twenty years and upwards, an allowance not exceeding,
that to which they would be entitled under the proposed new
scale for superannuation ; and if any of the clerks have previ-
cecly-to their appOintment upon the establishment of any office
secs d a 3 extra clerks therein, and shall have been not less than
three years upon the establishment, they shall, in computing
the allowances to which they may be entitled, have the benefit
of suels period of service. Their Lordships, however, desire.
that the cases of all those persons who may be entitled to such
gratuities or allowances may be specially reported 'to them, in
order that they may sanction the payments in conformity to the
Act 50 George 111. c. 117.
