RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED BY THE EXTENDED FEDERAL EXECUTIVE MEETING OF N.F.C.A.A. HELD IN DELHI ON 18TH AND 19TH JULY 2014

RESOLUTION- I


            The Extended Federal Executive meeting of the National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations (NFCAA), which represents the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category – II held today the 18th July 2014 in Delhi deliberated on the status of the proposal of cadre restructuring in the Civil Accounts Organisation.
            At the very outset, the meeting of the extended Federal Executives appreciated the positive approach of the Controller General of Accounts who has kindly recommended to the Ministry of Finance to grant of Rs:- 5400/- to AAOs and Rs:- 4600/- to Senior Accountants w.e.f. 01.01.2006.
It has however, been noted by the meeting that the issue of Cadre Restructuring had been raised by the Associations from 2012 onwards and due to constant struggle on the part of the Associations, some favourable decisions, on some of the issues referred, were taken by the office of CGA., ofcourse without any discussion with the representatives of the Associations. The issue of grant of Grade Pay of Rs. 4200 to Accountants have not been recommended and also, no recommendations had been made for MTS, LDC, Stenographic Cadres, DEOs  and other categories of employees of the Civil Accounts organization and hence the meeting of the Federal Executive  felt that the recommendations is not exhaustive. If the representatives of the Associations had been discussed before arriving out the recommendations as in practice followed by CBEC & CBDT Authorities, definitely the recommendations would have become a full-fledged one to the satisfaction of the entirety of the Civil Accounts Employees.
 It is therefore, resolved to urge upon the Controller General of Accounts to kindly have the discussion with the Associations on the left over cadres and other matters before recommending any of the issues to the higher authorities and Government of India.
It is further resolved that the copy of the resolution be forwarded to the Controller General Of  Accounts, Department Of Expenditure, Ministry Of Finance, New Delhi for his consideration and favourable action

RESOLUTION-II


The Extended Federal Executive meeting of the National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations (NFCAA), which represents the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category – II held today the 18th July 2014 in Delhi reviewed the outcome of the meeting held on 17th July 2014, between the official side of CGA office and the National Executive members of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category-II
While reviewing the outcome of the meeting held on 17thJuly on the items of agenda, the meeting observed that, though assurances were offered by the controller General of Accounts on different items in the meeting held between the Official Side and the Staff side on 30th May 2013, no issue had been settled during the intervening period of last one year.                   Major items like filling up of vacant posts, settlement of e-payment related recommendations made by the Staff side, recognitions to the Associations, grant of higher pay scales to DEOs, Restoration of 5% promotional quota for Gr-D (MTS), Grant headquarter allowance to steno/PS working in CGA Office, repatriation of AAOs brought  on deputation basis and stenos/PS of Ministry working in office of CGA,  provision of amenities in the Central Office of AICAEA and adoption of mutually agreed transfer Policy etc. have not made any progress during the period. It was very disappointing to observe in the meeting of the Federal Executive that though the Addl. Controller General, who chaired the meeting was very cordial in his approach, but the official side had been attempting to undo the assurances given  even by the Controller General of Accounts himself in the earlier meeting of 30thMay 2013 and in most of the cases, to convince him, Addl. Controller General had to be explained the back ground under which the Controller General had given the assurances on the earlier meeting.
            The meeting of the extended federal executive also noted that, the staff side tried their level best to impress upon the official side about the wide spread resentment generated among the rank and file of the membership on the discrimination in operation of transfer policy.                      But, official side was not inclined to consider the issue seriously and sort out the problems.
            In view of the above situations, the meeting of Federal Executives resolves to urge upon the Controller General of Accounts to kindly look into the resentment reflected though this resolution and direct  his office to do the needful for the early settlement of the long pending issues.
            The meeting further resolves to forward this resolution to Controller General of Accounts.

RESOLUTION-III

The extended federal executive meeting of the National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations (NFCAA), which represents the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category – II held today the 18TH July 2014 unanimously resolves to urge upon the Controller General of Accounts to stipulate the effective dates of promotions for all the cadres in the civil accounts organisation, viz., MTS to LDC, LDC to Accountants and from Accountants to Sr. Accountants uniformly as  on 1st of January , on the lines of the promotions being presently granted to Accounts Officers as  Sr. Accounts Officers, as the present system of the grant of promotions from a subsequent date is depriving the cadres the benefit of increment on 1st July of the year that is available for the Accounts Officers.
Resolved that the copy of the resolution be forwarded to the Controller General   of Accounts, Department Of Expenditure, Ministry Of Finance, New Delhi for his consideration and favourable action.

RESOLUTION-IV

            The Extended Federal Executive meeting of the National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations (NFCAA), which represents the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category – II held today the 18th July 2014 in Delhi reviewed the outcome of the meeting held between the official side of office of                        Pr.CCA, CBEC  and a few representatives of Central Headquarters of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association  and unit level office bearers of CBEC,  Delhi on 15thMay 2014.
The meeting noted with grave concern that, though the official side had offered assurances of considering and settling the issues expeditiously, but even after lapse of more than two months, none of the issues has been settled by them. The representatives of the Association have been repeatedly requesting the official side to implement the decisions of the meeting.  But the official side has been exhibiting total indifferent attitude.   Even when the staff side has been attempting to enquire about the status of the items from the concerned responsible persons they are either evading from responding or behaving arrogantly.
The above discussed situations being most anti-employee and  causing great harm to the interests of the employees altogether and spoiling the congenial atmosphere in the offices too, the meeting deplores such attitude and urges upon the Principal Chief Controller of Accounts, Central Board of Excise and Customs to kindly intervene and convene a meeting with the National Executives of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association immediately  for discussion and settlement of the long pending problems of the employees.
The meeting resolves that, if no response is received from the authority within a fortnight of the receipt of this resolution, the Association shall   have no other alternative but to resort to organizational actions.
The meeting further resolves to forward this resolution to the Principal Chief Controller of Accounts, Central Board of Excise and Customs and the Controller General of Accounts, Ministry of Finance.
