Officer, a change v/hich has not worked well in practice. The
work of the Treasury Officer has increased with the abolition of
rupee currency and increases with every new rule enforced
by the Audit Department for the greater check of accounts*
It is a whole time work and cannot possibly be combined with
that of Registrar. A Registrar should be a less harrassed
individual who is able to view the work of the office as a
whole and to see that everything functions smoothly and that
nothing is forgotten or overlooked. At present tne Registrar
is so overcome by his Treasury responsibilities that he is
unable to give of his best and to supervise the office work
in general as a Registrar should and he is too overworked
to be satisfactory in either place. The Secretary is
obliged to work three days a week at Sabzabad - 7 miles away -
and the need for supervision by a Superintendent is therefore
all the greater. I regard the re-creation of this post as
so important that I am prepared to sacrifice the 2nd
Interpreter ship to obtain it and I have accordingly omitted
this post from my proposition statement though I would
rat ler have maintained two first class interpreters of
gazetted rank - one for Persian and one for Arabic work -
owing to the fact that apart from the duties already named
they translate important and confidential letters to and from
Arab States and Persian officials.
17. The English Office with only one gazetted post as
compared with the Vernacular Office four lias at present very
poor prospects. I would urge therefore that the Superinten
dent and Treasury Officer at Muscat should be $iven gazetted
rank. As Treasy Officer his responsibilities are great
specially when it is recalled that the
Political Agent
A mid-ranking political representative (equivalent to a Consul) from the diplomatic corps of the Government of India or one of its subordinate provincial governments, in charge of a Political Agency.
,
\
is absent on recess during three months of the year. It is
in point of fact a matter of sm surprise that the post has not
already been made a gazetted one. I believe I am correct
v
in saying that Treasury Officers in India are always oi
gazetted rank.
