T&e starting pay of officers of the Indian Services
appointed to the Home Civil or Paltoign Services in the rank
of Principal or equivalent is calculated under rules which
have been agree*! "between the Tre&stxry and the Civil Service
Commission. Under these rules an office# *ho, like
Major Stewart, was under 40 years of age on "1st April 1947
cannot normally he paid an initial salary in excess of ^
£975 per annum.
2. Within the age group 34"*39 (in which^Iajor Stewart falls;
salaries are.calculated according to the candidates' marking
at the final interview hoard. Major Stewart's salary
was correctly assessed at £925 on this hasis.
3. It is not therefore entirely correct ^o say that the
salary offered has heen calculated on an arbitrary hasis:
no doubt the Treasury will he explaining hdw the special
scale is to he related to the normal incremental stages.
On the other hand Major Stewart's case is perhaps a hard
one, since lie has a good record and was nearly forty years
of age at the relevant date. The facts have been mentioned
to the Civil Service Conmission£ both by the Foreign Office
and from this Office)and the Commissioners .have undertaken
to review the case^in consultation (if necessary) vith the ,
Treasury.
4. The suggestion in last paragraph ctf j ir# IDonaldson
note seems acceptable. %
