WHEREAS prior to the most recent Civil Service reforms, the job descriptions of Permanent Secretaries within Ministries were to be set in law;
AND WHEREAS this was abolished as too cumbersome;
AND WHEREAS this means now there is no actual legal definition of what job descriptions actually are, except that they must be published;
AND WHEREAS this opens the possibility of future fights between Minister and PermSec;
BE IT ENACTED by the King, Cosâ and Senäts in Ziu assembled that El Lexhátx C.1.1.2, which currently reads:
