Appointment of Officers
 
1. Officers (other than the National President's appointments) will be appointed, promoted or transferred by the Commander-in-Chief.
 
2. It is of great importance that persons proposed as officers are of good character and of suitable age and education, all of which are necessary to ensure their having proper influence over members under their command. Full time secondary school students cannot be appointed as officers. Length of service alone is not a deciding factor in recommending for appointment or promotion.
 
3. Officers appointed to be in charge of Cadets will normally be below the age of 45 on first appointment. Unless in a combined division with adult membership, Officers of Cadets will be attached to an Adult Division for the maintenance of their own personal training and efficiency. Such officers must have proven ability to interest and lead boys and girls and be prepared to undertake regular training in youth work. This is a highly specialized task for which knowledge of First Aid and Nursing alone does not constitute adequate qualification.
 
4. The minimum age for the appointment of all officers is 19 but in special cases recommendations may be submitted to the Commander-in-Chief for the appointment of those who have reached their 18th birthday and who have had at least one year's experience in an adult division. Such appointments will be on probation for six months or until their 19th birthday, whichever is the longer period.
