7th Pay Commission: After final meeting, Committee on Allowances to submit report this week
Central government employees may soon get a
good news regarding the 7th Pay Commission recommendations as the
Committee on Allowances is likely to submit its report to the Finance
Ministry this week. The Committee on Allowances, formed to look into the
provision of higher allowances as the 7th Pay Commission, held a final
meeting on Thursday. Though there is no clarity whether consensus were
reached, but the Committee on Allowances is expected to submit its
report to Finance Minister Arun Jaitley this week.
If media reports are to be believed, the
Committee on Allowances, headed by Finance Secretary Ashik Lavasa, will
submit its report to Finance Minister Arun Jaitley this week. A Finance
Ministry official also confirmed the report, speaking to Bloomberg Quint. Once
the Lavasa panel submits its report on higher allowances under the 7th
Pay Commission, a cabinet note will be moved in this regard and the
government is expected to approve it. Central Government employees have
been eagerly awaiting the hike in allowances as per the 7th Pay Commission since
last year. Also Read – 7th Pay Commission: As central government
employees wait for HRA and higher allowances, RBI worried about
inflation
In Thursday’s meeting, the Committee on
Allowances was apprised of 14 existing allowances given by Department of
Posts, Ministries of Railways and Defence. The panel had sought more
information as these allowances were left out by the 7th Pay Commission.
According to sources, the committee has taken a final view on these 14
existing allowances.
The 7th Pay Commission had recommended
abolition of 51 allowances and subsuming 37 others out of 196
allowances, which triggered resentment among central government
employees. To resolve the issue, the government has formed the
Committee on Allowances in July last year to look into the provision of
higher allowances other than dearness allowance under the 7th Pay
Commission. The Committee on Allowances was initially given four months
to submit its report. Later, this deadline was extended to February 22,
2017. The Lavasa panel is yet to submit its report to the Finance
Ministry.
