About this statute

This Order creates a special status for diplomatic officers and regulates their working relationship with the ministry in charge of foreign affairs. This article defines key terms used in the Order about diplomatic recruitment and postings. Diplomatic officers are recruited through one of four methods: nomination, direct recruitment, restricted competition, or open competition. This article says nomination applies to certain jobs: posts at grade 2.III and jobs in the foreign affairs office, regardless of the position level. Direct recruitment for diplomatic staff is allowed without competition, and the Minister carries it out after consulting other competent authorities.
