§ 48. Mr. Messerasked the Minister of Health the method adopted by the Registrar-General in assessing the proposed salaries of registrars under the schemes to be put into operation in consequence of the 1931 Act?
§ Mr. ElliotAs the schemes referred to determine the remuneration of many salaried registrars who give different degrees of part-time service only, the basis adopted in such schemes is, in the first place, to fix the whole-time salary rate applicable to each grade of registrarship, and, secondly, to provide an assessment, subject to review, of the proportion of whole-time service required for the performance of the duties of each registrar-ship. Each scheme is prepared for my approval by the local authority in consultation with the Registrar-General, who 2334 advises on the first item with a view to securing reasonably uniform salary scales throughout the country, and on the second item by affording the experience of his Department as to the matters of fact involved.
