LIST OF SENIOR BRITISH EXPATRIATE OFFICERS SERVING IN DEPENDENT TERRITORIES
Please refer to your letter HKA 431/7 of 8 September to the Governor. You are quite correct in supposing that this list is, in practice, of no real value to us. I find that it does simply gather dust in most offices, and we seldom have cause to refer to it. However, as requested, I have attached to this letter the list of names which we would wish to see included in the next printing.
2. Perhaps this is a good opportunity to suggest that the entry for the Falkland Islands at the bank of HM Diplomatic Service Overseas Reference List might be slightly extended. I recall that, when I was posted here, I did not realise that there was a Diplomatic Officer serving as Deputy Governor and, as a result of my complaint, Personnel Operations Department agreed to augment some of the entries in List II, Part A, at page 103, to include certain other officers. It has always seemed valuable to me that such people as Miss Lawrence, the Governor's Assistant, who is a Diplomatic Service Grade 7, should be included in this particular list, but I cannot, of course, speak for the needs of other territories. But, if the Senior British Expatriate Officers' list is to disappear, there might be some merit in considering some expansion of the list at page 103 in the Diplomatic Service Reference List to include certain senior departmental officers. However, per- haps that may prove too difficult to achieve. Anyway, it is just possible that others might share this view.
