In refereace'to the appointment of five girls to one Department of the Civil Service in Wellington, Sir J. G. Ward explains that the names of the five girls appeared at the head of the Civil Service examinations', list, and they were entitled to the appointments when the vacancies occurred. Had the names of lads headed the list they would have been appointed, but as the young ladies occupied the position, and believing that women are entitled to the fullest consideration in these matters, he gave directions for the appointment of the girls in the ordinary form. The. appointments Have nothing to do with the retirement of Civil servants over 65 years.
