Paragraph 22 Appointment of operatorsI1

The Licensee shall ensure that another person (including, in the case where the Licensee is two or more persons, any of those persons) does not exercise any function of organising or supervising operations for searching or boring for or getting petroleum in pursuance of this licence unless the other person is a person approved in writing by the Minister as respects that function.

The Minister shall not refuse to give his approval of a person in pursuance of paragraph (1) of this clause if that person is competent to exercise the function in question; but where an approved person is not competent to exercise that function the Minister may, by notice in writing given to the Licensee, revoke his approval.
