Parly Reform Sinecures

In the first place Sinecures in general and Pensions in general are
placed upon exactly the same level, and as between the
one mode instrument of remunerationand the other the choice is presented to view
as matter of entire indifference – "Your Committee"
(say they) "are of opinion that such Sinecures as the
"the House in its wisdom may think fit to retain
"should always in future be applied to recompence the
"faithful discharge of the duties of official office; or
"in the event of the House preferring to abolish generally
"all such Offices, they conceive that it will become
"proper to abolish some other mode by which the
"Crown may be enabled to reward Public Servants in a
"manner proportioned to the nature and length
"of the duties performed".
