Under the old transportation system, the person on whom the
life condition of the convict depended — a Master working employing him for
his own (the Master's) benefit — would stand engaged,
by the tie of personal interest, to extract from him as much
labour from him as could be extracted - and in quality
to watch over his conduct in that and every other respect
with the utmost most uninterrupted vigilance - and, in respect of quality
as well as quantity of work to give the utmost return to his
service: Under this new transportation system, the
management being mere trust- management —
management management under the general orders of the Governor, conducted for
the benefit of the public purse — management therefore without interest — at least without
pecuniary interest - as well as without any other than a very loose inspection the effect of it was in this respect such as
from the nature of man might be expected. By the late Chief Magistrate of the Colony, the average amount of a day's work labour was
estimated (as will be seen further on) at not more than
a third of what would have been rendered by a free labourer
working on the ordinary terms. Collins. p.40.
