Prior to that date the. common fund rate of 4 per cent, was paid on the balance of the fund not specially invested, as provided by Regulation 58 under the Public Service Classification and Superannuation Act, 1908. It has been held, however, by the SolicitorGeneral that such regulation, so far as it relates to uninvested balances, is ultra vires and therefore invalid. The matter is now under the consideration of the Board. General. —Since the date of the last report, section 32 of the Public Service Classification and Superannuation Act, 1908, has been amended by section 26 of the Appropriation Act of last year, which provides that if a contributor dies while still in the public service and leaves a wife surviving him, the same amount of compensation shall be payable out of the Consolidated Fund to his personal representatives as would have been payable to him if he had retired compulsorily from the public service immediately before his death, and no moneys shall be payable out of the fund except the amount of his contributions. The statutory triennial investigation of the fund is now in progress, Mr. Morris Fox, the Actuary to the Government Life Insurance Department, having been appointed by the Governor for the purpose.
