THE EFFICIENCY BOARD
RESIGNATIONS ACCEPTED. (Per United Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, Sept. 5. Mr J. A. Frostick, National Efficiency Commissioner for Canterbury, has received a, telegram from the Chairman of the Efficiency Board, Wellington, as follows : “Resignations accepted as from 15th inst., but permit time for reorganisation. The Minister is writing direct to each Commissioner with suggestions.” THE ONLY COURSE POSSIBLE. CHRISTCHURCH, Sept. 5. Regarding the acceptance of the resignation of members of the Efficiency Board Mr Frostick said that in his opinion the course which has been taken was the only one possible. RECONSTRUCTION OF THE BOARD. INCLUSION OF A MINISTER. (Special to the Times.) WELLINGTON, September 5. The announcement that the resignation of the Efficiency Board has been accepted is confirmed. This does not mean, however, that the Miork of the Board is to cease. The Board is to be reconstructed, perhaps with a changed personnel. There may, or may not be, a modification of the order of reference, but the interference of the Board on policy matters to the embarrassment of the Government, and the recurrence of vexatious friction between the Board and the Government, will be prevented by the addition to the Board of a Minister.
