There are three principal ways of tackling option (ii).
First, the Chief Secretary at some stage becomes the Chief

The C. P.G. will dislike option (ii). There is an
argument for delegation to the Chief Secretary on grounds of
pressure of work. If they can be persuaded to accept it,

style Governor would be a divergence from the Joint Declaration.
and their lowest price could be power of direct appointment,
on the analogy of the British Governor.

the powers of the Governor is pursued, his role as presiding
officer of Executive Council could be gradually devolved to
the Chief Secretary/Chief Executive.
