MINUTES OF PROCEEDINGS AT MEETINGS HELD BY THE ROYAL COMMISSION
== '''TUESDAY, 4th OCTOBER 1881.''' ==
Present:
Mr. LONGMORE in the Chair;
Mr Anderson, Mr Hall
Mr Gibb, Mr Dixon,
Mr Fincham, Mr Levey
Minutes of previous meeting read and confirmed
The Commission having deliberated on section 25, referring to Superintendent Hare’s report of 2nd July 1880 , it was—
''Resolved'' —That the charge made by Superintendent Hare in his report of 2nd July 1880 —that Mr. [[Nicolson|Nicolson]], Assistant Commissioner, “gave me (Hare) no verbal information whatever,” when at Benalla—is disproved by the evidence.
Sections 26-and 27 were postponed.
The Commission having deliberated respecting Captain [[Standish|Standish]]'s relations to the police force, it was—
''Resolved'' —That the conduct of Captain Standish, as Chief Commissioner of Police, as disclosed in the evidence brought before the Commissioners, was not characterized either by good judgment or by that zeal for the interests of the Public Service which should have distinguished an officer in Captain Standish's position. The Commission attribute much of the bad feeling which existed amongst the officers to the want of impartiality, temper, tact, and judgment evinced by the Chief Commissioner in his dealings with his subordinates; and they cannot refrain from remarking that many of the charges made by Captain Standish in his evidence before them were disproved by the evidence of other witnesses.
The meeting adjourned until the following morning, at Eleven a.m.
5/11/81 .
FRANCIS LONGMORE, Chairman.
