![7. The Sub-Assistant Surgeon, on completing his septennial period, slmll report the siune to the Superintending Surgeon of the Division in which he may be serving, who will obtain the orders of the Officer com- manding the Station itself, or the one nearest to it, where three resident Medical Officers may be available for the assembly of the above Com- mittee ; the Superintending Surgeon himself serving on the Committee, at Stations where, as at Dacca for example, the number of Medical Officers present may be insufficient without him. 8. The Committee will forward their Keport to the Superintending Surgeon of the Division for ti-ansmission to the Medical Board, whose duty it will be to submit it for the orders of the Government. 9. Shoidd the Report of the Committee be favorable, the promotion of the Sub-Assistant Surgeon will be notified in Government orders, and he will receive the salary of his new rank, from the day succeeding the date on which he may have completed his last septennial period. 10. Should the Report of the Committee on the other hand be unfavorable, the Sub-Assistant Surgeon will continue in the lower rank and on its allowances, for the period for which the Committee may deem fit to remand him to his studies, and to the more diligent discharge of his duties. 11. Should the Sub-Assistant Surgeon still fall, at the close of that probationary period, to afford to the Examining Committee satisfactory proof of proficiency and diligence, his case will be submitted in the manner prescribed in Rule 8, for the consideration and orders of Govern- ment, as to his removal, or otherwise, from the rank of Sub-Assistant Surgeon, or from the public service. 12. Mere seniority will, in no instance, constitute in itself a claim to promotion, and it is distinctly to be understood that high attainments whether the result of eminent talent or of laborious industr)^ per- severed in for a reasonable time, will give such claim at any time inter- mediate to the septennial periods; and the Medical Officer under whom a Sub-Assistant Surgeon may be serving, or the Superintending Surgeon himself, in case the Sub-Assistant Surgeon may be holding an indepen- dent charge, shall consider it to be his duty to bring everj' instance of distinguished merit under the notice of the Medical Board, accompanied by a statement of the particular circumstances, which he may consider as entitling the individual to early promotion, to enable them to judge of the expediency, or otherwise, of recommending the case to the favorable con- sideration of Government. The Hon'ble Court have ruled that Sub-Assistant Sm-geons shall not at any time, be admitted to the benefit of the Rules under which pensions are granted to the Members of the Uncovenanted Service. Since tliese rules were passed Babu Madusudun Gupta, and Sub-Assistant Surgeon Sliibchunder Kormokar have been promoted to the first and second ranks of Sub-Assistant Siu- geons respectively. Fred.
