Clause 73

For the purpose of removing doubts as to the powers of command vested or to be vested in officers and others belonging to the Singapore armed forces, it is hereby declared that the President may, in such manner as to the President may from time to time seem fit, make regulations as to the persons to be invested as officers, or otherwise, with command over the Singapore armed forces, or any part thereof, or any person belonging thereto, and as to the mode in which such command is to be exercised.

Nothing in this section shall be deemed to be in derogation of any power otherwise vested in the President.
