§ 6.5 p.m.
§ Sir S. HOAREI beg to move, in page 134, line 35, after "salaries," to insert "allowances, leave."
Under this Clause a chief justice is empowered to make rules, and certain of those rules which are connected with pensions and salaries have to be referred to the Governor-General. It has been pointed out to us that as there is great need for uniformity over the whole of India in matters of this kind, it is better to add to the rules which should be referred to the Governor-General, the rules connected with allowances and leave as well. The object is to ensure, as far as possible, uniformity in these matters over the whole of India.
§ Amendment agreed to.
