Dear Comrades,

A brief of the
discussion/decision is given below.
Ms Ajanta Dayalan, DAI & Chairperson, presided.
1.
Implementation of Scheme of Joint Consultative
Machinery & Compulsory Arbitration
(JCM & CA) on the basis of the Scheme and Constitution of JCM & CA and
the joint intent.
Chairperson
said that the Department is all for smooth and effective functioning of the Scheme
of JCM. As regards changes unilaterally effected to the Constitution of
Departmental Council, DAI said that constitution will have to be in conformity
with the model Constitution circulated by DOPT.
It
was agreed that the staff side would submit a detailed note in this regard.
2.
Implementation
of CCS (RSA) Rules, 1993 in its true format and as per the OMs issued by the
nodal ministry.
There was no unanimity amongst staff side as
three members – who did not attend the staff side meeting held in the forenoon
session – objected to departmental level, unitary Associations.
Chairperson desired that staff side come with a
uniform approach. But it was assured that the practical difficulties in the
present system, if any, would be addressed. It was also stated by Chairperson
that the present system has somewhat stabilised, changing it would unsettle it.
It was agreed to discuss it further.
3.
Implementation
of the standing orders on the functional facility to recognised Associations as
per decisions taken in the meetings of National Council, JCM.
It
was agreed that specific cases where the facilities are denied would be
discussed separately for resolution.
4.
Revision
of sanctioned strength of P&T Audit offices
5. Sanction adequate posts so as to
discharge mandate under the
Constitution and DPC Act
Items for 4 & 5 were taken up
together.
It
was reported by Chairperson that the process of filling up of vacancies are on
progress and it would take time for the results to be visible as the vacancy
position is quite high. So far, during the last 4-5 years, 20000 dossiers were
received from SSC of which nearly 12000 have reported.
It
was assured that there would be no ‘matching saving’ at the cost of base level
cadres.
6. Reduction in the percentage of marks to 40% for passing
the SAS and incentive/RA examination.
It
was informed that further reduction in passing percentage in SAS/RA/incentive
exams is not possible.
Staff side raised
the issue of granting unlimited chances for SAS exam. Chairperson desired a
detailed note from staff side on this (as this did not form the part of agenda)
which would be sympathetically considered.
Staff
Side agreed to submit a detailed note on the number of chances for SAS exam.
7. Change of name of DA grade Exam into Works
Accounts Service
Chairperson informed that the demand is not agreed
to.

to close down various Resident Audit Offices/Parties (RAO/RAP)
It was agreed that Staff Side would pursue the
matter, first, with the concerned wing.
9. Revision of TA/DA rates, treating “on tour”
for cultural and sports activities’ participants
Staff
side appreciated the fact that necessary order in this regard has already been
issued but pointed out that the facility is not extended to participants in the
cultural events.
It
was agreed to examine this demand.
10. Extend equal promotional avenues to
Stenographers of the same station
Chairperson agreed that
it is a genuine grievance but agreeing to it would lead to opening up of many such
demands from similarly placed common cadres.
The demand was not agreed
to.
11. Restoration of scheme
of unilateral transfer
Chairperson informed that
in the given context opening up of unilateral transfer cannot be considered.
On the request of Leader

unilateral transfer in respect of handicapped persons as a special case.
12. De-merge Record
Keeper post from MTS and Strengthen Record Management Scheme as per provisions
of MIR

would be sympathetically considered.
