The Civil Service Board was part time. Public Servants elected it. The Board included one member each from the Railway and Education Departments and three from the other departments.
In 1905, a Royal Commission found that self-government by public servants did not work. It recommended the establishment of an expert Public Service Board that was more or less independent from the government.
