commission of appointment

  
     
  The document given by the sending state to a new head of mission appointing him or her to the position in question. Historically, it sometimes detailed his duties or gave him instructions. It is to be distinguished from letters of credence or letters of commission, both of which accredit the appointee to the receiving state\'s head of state. British high commissioners, for historical reasons, do not receive commissions of appointment.
