Contract Terms for
Overseas Inspectors of Police
I refer to your telegram dated 20th February, 1973 and confirm that approval is given for Overseas Inspectors of Police to be recruited on contract terms as outlined below:-
2.
(a) Candidates to be appointed initially on contract for 3 years;
further contracts of 21⁄2 years will be offered to those who satisfactorily complete their first contract.
(b) On satisfactory completion of each contract, the normal contract
gratuity (at present 25%) will be paid.
(c) Officers will be given the option to transfer to the permanent and pensionable establishment of this Government on completion of their first contract or at any stage during their second or subsequent contracts.
(d) The age, physical and educational requirements to remain the same as at present, but in very special circumstances candidates up to the age of 35 will be considered on their merits.
I enclose a memorandum on Conditions of Service together with a revised paper containing additional particulars applicable to Police Inspectors. Copies of these documents should be given to all candidates whether appointed on contract or probationary terms. The actual terms of employment will, of course, have to be spelled out in your letter offering appointment. In this connection, paragraph 1 of your standard letter of appointment will have to be slightly altered. A slight amendment to paragraph 2 of that letter is also required to make it clear that contract officers are not eligible for enrolment as members of Her Majesty's Overseas Civil Service unless they opt for transfer to the permanent and pensionable establishment.
3.
I will keep you informed of any future amendments to the memorandum or the paper of particulars attached. In this connection, I am to state that the rates of income tax are at present under revision and I will let you know once the new rates have been approved.
