There seem to be comments and the case itself sugesting that AMP and COS Pers should probably have - shock, horror - personnel experience (HR, Personnel branch background?). We seem to do this with every other specialisation but bizarrely feel that our Senior HR/Personnel officer does not have to have any actual previous experience of the HR field (commanding a Sqn/Stn is not the same thing as having specialist knowledge).
Controversial but would this help towards solving some of the issues raised here?
