In order to give effect to an administrative re-arrangement of ministry or portfolio responsibilities, the Head of the Civil Service may —
transfer a civil servant to another ministry or portfolio, by a determination in writing;
determine in writing that a civil servant ceases to be an employee of the government and becomes an employee of a statutory authority or government company, and such determination shall be effective notwithstanding the provisions of the statute governing the statutory authority or the instruments of incorporation of the company, as the case may be; and
engage any person who was previously an employee of a statutory authority or government company as a government employee in a specified ministry or portfolio.
Where a civil servant becomes an employee of a statutory authority or government company under paragraph (1)(b) he shall, unless the Head of the Civil Service otherwise directs, continue to enjoy remuneration and other conditions of employment that are not less favourable than the terms and conditions to which the employee was entitled immediately before ceasing to be a civil servant.
Subsection (2) shall cease to have effect on the next occasion when there is a variation in remuneration and conditions in the statutory authority or government company.
