Commenting on Mr. Bedford's decision to leave the government

Mr. Jack Cater, Commissioner Against Corruption said: "I am naturally

very sorry to lose the services of such an experienced administrator as

Mr. Bedford. He has made a considerable contribution to the planning

the impetus on his side of the work of the Commission and we hope to
