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. In this case, the regular head of mission should inform the national authorities of the position he wishes the extraordinary envoy to be given. 1, record 1, English, - extraordinary%20envoy
