can be trusted not to appoint persons as Legal Officers if they have insufficient qualifications. Further, Mr. de Comarmond's suggestion would mean that Legal Officers would have to be duly admitted to practise inder Hong Kong law before they could discharge their duties and we ought not to suggest that.
The definition of "Legal Officer" seems to bedeffective, however, because not all officers appointed to the C.L.S. as Legal Officers are in the service of Hong Kong; it is not clear whether the definition would continue to apply to a Legal Officer after promotion, and it seems desirable to insert the word "lawfully" before the word "discharging". The following definition is suggested:-
"Legal Officer means an officer
appointed to, and serving in, the Colony as a Legal Officer, or an officer lawfully performing the functions of any of the offices designated in the Schedule to
