Section 3

The Minister may appoint a Director of the Central Narcotics Bureau and such numbers of Deputy Directors, Divisional Directors and other officers as the Minister may think fit.

All officers of the Bureau appointed by the Minister before 12 December 1975 are deemed to have been appointed under subsection (1).

Subject to the provisions of this Act, the powers and functions conferred upon the Director under this Act, and the duties required to be discharged by him or her may, subject to such limitations as the Director may impose, be exercised and discharged by any Deputy Director or Divisional Director of the Central Narcotics Bureau duly authorised by the Director to act on his or her behalf.

The Director may issue such orders not inconsistent with the provisions of this Act and the regulations made under this Act, to be called General Orders, as he or she may think necessary and expedient for the control, direction and information of the officers of the Bureau.

It is not necessary to publish any General Orders in the Gazette.
