Salaries Revision
From Our Own Correspondent SUVA, March 1 IN February circulars were sent to all Fiji Civil Servants giving details of the new salaries and salary scales and conditions of service resulting from the revision which follows the report by Mr. E. Mills last year.
Some salaries, notably those of senior officers in the Medical, Education and Prisons Departments are still under con sideration.
Except in special circumstances officers are required to accept or reject the new salaries and conditions of service before April 15. The new terms will be retro spective to January 1. 1950. Leave and passage grant conditions are not included in the present option as it was recom mended by Legislative Council that the new conditions should not apply to serv ing officers unless they receive substan tial promotion. As the question of the future of the Provident Fund for Fiji civil servants and the possibility of trans ferring it into a pensions scheme is still being considered, pensions and retire ment conditions are also excluded from the present option.
