Officers of the General Government not to take part in Political Demonstrations.

Colonial Secretary’s Office,
Wellington, 5th April, 1865.

IT has been recently brought under the notice of the General Government that some of its officers have signed Public Memorials of a political character, and have otherwise taken a prominent part in political demonstrations.

The attention of such officers, especially where, as in some instances, they hold Judicial Offices, is called to the desirability of their abstaining in future from proceedings of this kind.

Officers employed in the service of the General Government are also expected to refrain from taking any part in Elections for Members of the General Assembly beyond recording their votes, if they desire to do so.
