Reorganisation Costs Fiji

From Our Own Correspondent.

Suva, May 27.

MADE necessary principally by the recently-approved reorganisation of the Civil Service of Fiji, the Legis lative Council at the last session was asked to approve large supplementary iestimates. In an extremely lengthy debate, unofficial members strongly op posed many of the items, especially those connected with increased leave and passage privileges, but the estimates were eventually passed by 18 votes to 12.

The total additional provision asked for was £38,058; savings amounting to £7,215 are available, leaving a net ad ditional provision required of £30,843.
