resolution adopted in federal executive meeting held on 21st&22nd July 2009.

RESOLUTION

 

This joint National Executive meeting of the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category II held under the Banner of National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations at Delhi on 21^st and 22^nd July 2009 expressed its deep anguish over the indifference of the Civil Accounts authority towards the issues and problems of the Civil Accounts Employees.

Immediately after the All India Conferences of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category II on 11^th April, 2009, Secretary Generals of both the Associations had sought courtesy meetings with the Controller General of Accounts who had taken over the office on the eve of the conferences. But the Controller General of Accounts did not respond to the requests of the Associations.

Subsequently, the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category II had forwarded the list of long pending demands and requested the Controller General of Accounts to convene meetings with the National Executives of the Associations for discussion and settlement of those pending issues. But the Controller General has not responded to these requests also.

The meeting noted that, several issues concerning with different categories of the Employees are pending with the office of the Controller General of Accounts which are causing serious financial losses to the employees. Repeated approach of the Associations to settle such issues have become a futile exercise on the part of the Associations as the office of the Controller General of Accounts did not take any action. Further, the office of the Controller General of Accounts neither observe the Government of India instructions regarding endorsement of copies of orders and circulars of general interests to the Association nor maintain the courtesy of acknowledging the letters of the Associations.

The meeting also noted with utmost disappointment that, unlike any other departmental authorities, the Civil Accounts authorities are not even ready to discuss the grievances and problems arisen regarding the status and pay scales of different categories of employees after implementation of the 6CPC recommendations.

The meeting further noted that, despite fulfilling all pre-conditions for recognition under CCS (RSA) Rules, 1993, the Civil Accounts authorities are not extending recognition to All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category II.

Since the situations discussed above have generated wide resentment among the Civil Accounts Employees, this meeting urges upon the Controller General of Accounts to convene a meeting with the National Executives of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category II together at the earliest for discussion and settlement of the list of the pending demands forwarded to his office by the aforementioned Associations.

The meeting resolves to forward this resolution to the Controller General of Accounts, Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure, New Delhi.
