This Office Memorandum addresses pay anomalies arising from the promotion of senior Personal Assistants (PAs) of the Central Secretariat Service Scheme (CSSS). It clarifies that senior PAs appointed or promoted before January 1, 2006, and earning less than those promoted after that date, are eligible for a pay step-up upon regular promotion. This applies to officers who received ACP (Assured Career Progression) before 2006, provided the senior officer was already earning more than their junior before the ACP was granted. The decision was made after consultation with the Department of Expenditure.
