§ Mr. K. RobinsonNo. The terms of service already provide that the maximum remuneration for part-time appointments which together do not constitute a whole-time appointment shall be that appropriate for nine notional half days; and hospital authorities are well aware of the need to satisfy themselves that the efficient performance of regular duties is not impaired by additional unpaid or locum work.
