§ Captain Kerbyasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether, in view of Section 31 of the Colonial Regulations, an officer serving on extended probation, for an indefinite period and without his knowledge, can be summarily dismissed from the service two months after his original contract has expired.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydThe appointment of an officer serving on probation may be terminated at any time whether or not the original period of his probation has expired.
