At present there are similar arrangements for advancement from Commission Against Corruption Officer (Lower) to Commission Against Corruption Officer (Middle) to those we have recommended in paragraph 6.19 of our Report No. 2 for the overlapping ranks of Inspector and Senior Inspector in the Royal Hong Kong Police Force.
