CHAP. TI] LEGAL BASIS the Maori race. The Legislature Act, 1908, provides simi- larly, but omits the limitation in number. The only other reference to the topic is in the Acts conferring salaries on members of the Executive Council who are ministers passed in 1873 and 1887, which are thus consolidated in s. 10 of the Civil List Act, 1908, No. 22 :— Each of the Ministers to whom salary is appropriated under this Act shall be a member of the Executive Council holding one or more of the ministerial offices mentioned in the second schedule hereto, but if two or more such offices are held at any one time by the same minister, he shall nevertheless be paid the salary attached to one of the said Sffices only. 75 The letters patent do not fetter in any way the discretion of the Governor as to the number or choice of Executive councillors. § 5. SouTH AFRICA _ In the case of the Cape again we find the utmost simplicity in the circumstances affecting responsible government. The Act for that purpose passed in 1872, No. 1, contains only Provision for the appointment of two new officers, one a Commissioner of Crown Lands and Public Works, the other a Secretary for Native Affairs, who shall hold office during pleasure and be appointed by the Crown, not, as usual in these cases, by the Governor. These officers and the offices of Colonial Secretary, Treasurer, and Attorney-General are de- clared to be capable of being held by persons who are members of Parliament and who are to have a right of debate in either house if members of one, but not to vote except in the house to which he has been elected. Pensions are also provided for the three officers then holding the posts of Secretary, Treasurer, and Attorney-General in the event of retirement on political grounds, and the salaries of ministers are laid down and their posts declared not to be pensionable. The new letters patent do not attempt to alter the composition of the Executive Council, leaving it open to the Governor to appoint any person whom he chooses in addition to any who might by law be members. No law ever made any ministers
