    The Court held that section 7(1) confers broad powers which are not restricted by subsection (2); the appellant's engagement fell within the Authority's power to appoint staff or enter into arrangements to supply services and thus he was appointed under the Ordinance and bound by the confidentiality duties in s15; the magistrate's finding and approach were proper and the conviction was upheld.
