Sixth Report of the Standing Committee on Directorate
Salaries & Conditions of Service
INTRODUCTION
2.
(a)
(b)
The terms of reference are:
The Committee will keep under review the structure (i.e.
the number of levels, the pay rates appropriate to each level and the level appropriate to each post) of the
Directorate, including the grouping of departments for
salary purposes, together with the other conditions of
service of Directorate officers, and will make recommendations
to the Governor.
The Committee will also, when it so determines, conduct an
overall review. In the course of this, the Committee should
accept the existing internal structure of departments and not
consider the creation of new Directorate posts. If, however,
the Committee in an overall review discovers anomalies, it
may comment upon and refer such matters to the Chief Secretary.
These revised terms of reference were approved in 1976
following the recommendation in our Fifth Report (1974) that 'Directorate'
replace 'Superscale' and also to make clearer the function of the
Committee.

five reports, in 1964, 1966, 1971, 1972, and 1974.
reviews we have recommended a number of minor changes and considered the
grading of new posts, and certain urgent regradings, in order to meet changed circumstances and retain relativities with the rest of the Civil Service. (A list of Directorate and Judicial/Legal group posts created
between 1st April 1974 and 31st March 1977 is at Appendix 1.)
