Mr. David Adamsasked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is aware that no adequate provision is made to meet the increased cost of living to members of the Civil Services in Trinidad; and whether he will recommend that war bonuses should now be granted to these applicants?
§ Mr. George HallA war bonus has been given to the lower paid members of the Trinidad Civil Service since January, 1941. The rates of this bonus have recently been increased.
