Protocol relations between the accredited heads of diplomatic missions and the heads of extraordinary missions are, at times, more delicate to regulate. If a member of the government(Minister of Secretary of State) has unquestioned precedence over an ambassador, the question can become controversial when the head of an extraordinary mission has a hierarchical rank inferior to that of the head of mission at the post.
