FINANCE DEPARTMENT
G.O.M.s. No.531 Dated 25.4.1963
- (i) Government Memorandum No.94331-A/ALL-I/60-3, dt.28.7.1961.
- (ii) U.O.Note No.116000/Bud-Cord/62-16, dt.29.1.1963.
The Madras Pay Commission which had gone into the question of prescribing a test on the Manual of General Administration to all Lower Division Clerks and directly recruited Upper Division Clerks, observed that due to the rapid expansion of departments in recent years, it had become difficult to man important clerical and higher supervisory posts in some of the departments with staff qualified in such Departmental tests. For example, in the Revenue Department it was difficult to secure clerks qualified in all Revenue Tests for posts of Revenue Inspectors. The Government therefore, framed a scheme of cash rewards to clerks of Revenue Department who pass all Revenue Tests within a certain number of attempts. The Madras Pay Commission had suggested that such a scheme of cash rewards may be extended to other important departments also in respect of tests which may be considered to be of crucial importance in those departments.
2. The Government, after careful examination of the above recommendation of the Pay Commission, in consultation with the Heads of Departments including the Director of Treasury and Accounts direct that one advance increment in the scale of pay applicable to the Government servants should be sanctioned for their passing the Account Test Examination. This concession will apply only to the non-Gazetted Government Servants in the ‘Ministerial Service’.
3.This order will take effect from 1.4.1963.
