Clause 34

The Authority shall approve a list of posts which it thinks necessary for the purposes of this Ordinance and may, from time to time, add to or amend the same. The first such list of posts shall contain the posts to be filled by all the persons transferred to the service of the Authority under section 16 of this Ordinance.

The Authority shall not employ any person unless he holds a post appearing in the list of posts for the time being in force:Provided that this subsection shall not apply to persons employed on daily or hourly rates of pay or engaged in contract labour or employed temporarily for a period not exceeding two months.

The Minister may, with the consent of the Public Service Commission, declare that appointments and promotions to such posts or classes of posts as he deems fit, and the termination of appointment, dismissal and disciplinary control of persons appointed to such posts, shall be vested in the Authority acting on the advice of the Public Service Commission, and upon such declaration, the Authority shall exercise such functions on the advice of the Public Service Commission.

Subject to the provisions of this section —

The Authority may, with the approval of the Minister make rules, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Ordinance or of any other written law, for the appointment, promotion, disciplinary control and terms and conditions of service of all persons employed by the Authority, and may in making such rules provide that any employee who is guilty of a breach of any of such rules may either be dismissed or be punished with such less severe disciplinary action as in the circumstances may seem just.

Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (5) of this section, the Authority shall, with the approval of the Minister, prescribe the rates of remuneration payable to persons employed by the Authority, and no person so employed shall be paid otherwise than in accordance with such rates.
