- Title:
- Coll 1/20 'Aden Staff and Establishment: Personal Assistant to the Chief Commissioner'
- Scope & Content:
-
The file contains correspondence between the Aden Resident (later Chief Commissioner), the Colonial Office, the War Office, the Foreign and Political Department for the Government of India, and the Treasury, regarding the appointment of military officers as Personal Assistant or Aide-de-Camp to the Aden Resident.
The correspondence dated between 1932-1934 concerns the objection of the War Office to paying for extra duties performed by military officers in their spare time. An argument is made that an exception should be made for the Aden Protectorate, particularly for temporary appointments to cover leave.
The correspondence dated between 1934-1937 concerns suggested appointments to the post, and the pay and allowances to be drawn by the applicants.
The file includes a divider which gives a list of correspondence references contained in the file by year. This is placed at the end of the correspondence (folio 1).
