HC Deb 05 July 1928 vol 219 c1568
51. Mr. DAY

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the fifth appointment to the post of inspectorship in connection with the education of Kenya has now been made; and the amount of remuneration this position carries?

The SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Mr. Amery)

No, Sir; the post has not yet been filled. The scale of salary attached to the post is £400 per annum rising to £720 per annum, but the Governor of Kenya is prepared to agree to a starting salary in excess of £400 per annum if circumstances should justify a larger initial rate of pay.

Mr. DAY

Can the right hon. Gentleman say whether any applications have been made for the post, and, if so, how many?

Mr. AMERY

No.
