(4)

On approval by the Secretary of State of the person to be appointed on any occasion as chief officer of the council and the terms and conditions of his appointment, the Secretary of State shall—

if that person is not already a member of the council, appoint him as a member for the same term as the term of his appointment as chief officer, or
