An officer of a Board in relation to which the Third Schedule or any subsequent Schedule to these Regulations applies who is appointed, transferred or promoted to an office specified in Table A of the appropriate Schedule shall, subject to this regulation, be paid the minimum salary specified in that Table opposite to that office, or, where a maximum salary is also so specified, such higher salary (not exceeding that maximum salary) as the Board determines.

(2.) The Board may, if it is satisfied with the conduct, diligence and efficiency of an officer, grant such annual increments of salary (if any) as are specified in Table A in the appropriate Schedule opposite to the office occupied by that officer, but so that the annual salary of the officer shall not exceed the maximum salary so specified.
