New Delhi: Ministries
and departments can raise afresh the demand for pay revision if they
find that some of the justified suggestions made by the staff
associations were not accepted by the 7th Central Pay Commission.
Such demands could be submitted to the Implementation Cell (IC),
created in the Finance Ministry, to work as Secretariat for the
Empowered Committee of Secretaries headed by Cabinet Secretary P K
Sinha.
The CoS will screen the recommendations of the Commission and firm up the conclusions for approval of the Cabinet.
"If a representation was made by a Staff Association before the 7th
Central Pay Commission and the Commission after due diligence has not
accepted the demand made there in, the same matter normally not be
considered at the stage.
"However, if departments consider that the issues are of such nature
that they require consideration at this stage also, then they may give
their comments with full justifications to the IC," said the minutes of
the of first meeting of the IC.
While a number of ministries/departments have sent their comments and
nominated their Nodal Officers, the comments received from some
ministries are "simply in the nature of forwarding" the representations
of the staff associations without their comments.
The recommendations when implemented would have bearing on
remuneration of 47 lakh central government employees and 52 lakh
pensioners.
Subject to acceptance by the government, the recommendations will take effect from January 1, 2016.
Minutes of the meeting, held on February 2, also said it was also
impressed upon the Nodal Officers of ministries and departments that "in
case, there is any need" consultation with the Staff Association at the
level of department, "the same may be done as per the assessment of the
department".
Further, if a department is of the view that any recommendation needs
modification, adequate justification should be brought out while
sending the comments to the IC.
The meeting was held to formulate the action points on processing of Commission.
