Instead of specifying a salary level we propose to amend Colonial Regulation 19 so that we can list for each territory the senior posts or grades which require the Secretary of State's prior approval under the provisions of this Colonial Regulation. For hontserrat we have in mind the following posts:

All Permanent Secretaries

Director of Audit (Section 42(1) of your Ord 17 of

Commissioner of Police

Attorney-General

3. Please let me know if you agree or whether there are any additions to this list at Head of Department level which should be added, so that we can in due course send you a formal despatch.
