Pay Rise For Fiji Civil
From Our Own Correspondent
Suva, Nov. 25.
11HE Governor of Fiji (Sir Brian Free ston) at the opening of the present session of the Legislative Council emphasised the grave difficulty with which the Fiji Government is faced in maintaining and replenishing its profes sional services—a difficulty due largely to the meagre level of remuneration which prevails in Fiji compared with other parts of the Colonial Empire.
He said that a Salaries Commissioner
was being sent to the Colony by the Sec retary of State for the Colonies and would arrive about March to investigate the position.
It was likely that Fiji thereafter would have to find more money for at least some categories of its civil servants.
