EXT R ACT OF TREASURY MINUTE, DATED AUG. 10, 18'2

REDUCTION AND ALTERATION IN THE.
ESTABLISHMENT. •

My Lords, in calling Tii:o;iicefiLys-„;iihe other Depat tments
of his Majesty's Civil Government to enter upon a revision of
their respective Establishments, with a view to such economical
reductions as may fulfil the intentions of his Majesty, express-
ed in his answers to the Addresses of both Houses of Parlia-
ment, think it right to state the- principles upon which they
have proceeded, and the course they have followed in the re-
vision of the establishment of the- Treasury under their imme-
diate. direction.

They have thought that they should best carry into execu-
tion the intentions expressed in the Addresses of Parliament,
by keeping in view the following general rules :-
Ist. That every office was to be restored to the situation, in
respect to the number of persons employed, and of their respec-
tive emoluments, in which it stood in 17i17, unless some ade-
quate cause continued to exist, which rendered some alteration
necessary.
2d. That where increase of business, or the more correct and
efficient etecution of the public service rendered it necessary to
preserve establishments either created or enlarged since 1797,
the emoluinent of the officers composing those establishments
should be assimilated as nearly as the change of circumstances
would admit, to those received by persons in similar situations
in 1797.

3d. That if any office existing in 1797 was found to be no
longer necessary to the public service, or that its emoluments
might be properly reduced, such office should be abolished or
reduced in value, as the case might admit.
Proceeding upon the foregoing rules, my Lords began by a
careful comparison of the establishment of the Treasury in 1797
and as it now exists ; and finding that a very large increase had
taken place both in respect of the number of persons employed,
and the amount of their emoluments in some parts of the office,
they directed a plan to be prepared of a ncv establishment, in
which no greater number of officers should be retained than was
necessary for the execution of the business of the Treasury in its
present state, enlarged as it has been by the incorporation of the
whole business of the Irish Treasury, as well as greatly in-
creased in other respects, and in which the emoluments of each
class of officers should be as nearly assimilated to those of cor-
responding situations in 1797, as the alteration of the circum-
stances of the office would fairly admit.

Such a plan having been prepared accordingly, and approved
by their Lordships, they have directed that the new establish-
ment shall be considered as taking effect from the sth of January
next, and that every new appointment or promotion which may
take place from that day shall be considered as subject to the
new regulations. _

In order to introduce this new system as early as may be prac-
ticable, yet with as little inconvenience as possible to the indi-
viduals whose interests may be affected, they have directed that
every person whose situation is not to be abolished shall retain
his present emoluments (subject to such payment to the super-
annuated fund as may be due therefrom) until, by promotion, or
allowance for length of service, he shall be entitled, under the
new regulations, to a salary at least equal to that which he now
possesses.
