DR. RUTHERFORDI beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs how 1230 many British inspectors of the Slave Trade Repression Department in Egypt have been appointed during the years 1905 and 1906, and at what salaries.
I beg also to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what are the salaries and what is the rate of pension payable to Native and British Judges respectively, officiating in the Egyptian mixed Courts and in the Native civil and criminal Courts and to the Judges of Mahomedan ecclesiastical Courts; when were the salaries of the Judges of the Native civil and criminal and Mahomedan ecclesiastical Courts fixed; within what period, if at all, and by how much have they been augmented; and upon what system are their pensions calculated.
§ SIR EDWARD GREYI will inquire. I have no information at present.
