Dear Comrade,

The Standing Committee of the Staff Side, National Council has interaction with the 7th CPC on 25th Feb., 2015 followed by the Standing Committee meeting of National Council (JCM) with the Secretary DOPT in the afternoon. The meeting with the Secretary came as result of the decisions that we have conveyed for organizing March to Parliament and other Programmes, culminate as a pre pretretory measure for an indefinite strike. The agenda for discussion with the Secretary Personnel was, therefore, the Charter of demands (10 points) we had submitted to the Government after the National Convention of all Central Government Employees Organizations on 11th December, 2014. The response from Government undoubtedly establish the fact that ultimately they have taken note of the growing discontentment of the Central Government Employees manifested through various programmes we have jointly carried out by this time. we, therefore, earnestly request the affiliates and leaders of various organizations at the field formations to intensify the ongoing programmes to compel the Government to settle our demands. We give here under a brief resume of the discussions we had with the Pay Commission and the Secretary Personnel, which is indicative of the reflections of both the entitities.

MEETING WITH THE PAY COMMISSION :

The chairman informed of his in ability to take a final decision on the question of merger of DA and Interim Relief as the Government had not referred this matter to them and further stated that this Govt. can take decisions on the two issues, without any report from the CPC. He added that the memoranda received from he staff Side on these two issues had been forwarded to the Government. He wanted the Staff side to take up the matter with the Government and assured that on receipt of the reference form the Government they would consider the matter without any loss of time. However they indicated that the Commission would strive to submit their report to the Government within the stipulated time frame and therefore, the question of interim relief, in his opinion should not arise at all. The Staff side requested him to appreciate the fact that the matter concerning merger of D.A and Interim relief has been raised by them not on account of the possible delay on the part of Pay Commission but emanated from the fact that the erosion in the real value of wages of the Central Government has been eroded during the period drastically

ON ORAL EVIDENCE :

The methodology to be adopted by the 7th CPC in the matter was discussed at length. it was ultimately decided that the Staff Side after considering the viewpoints express by the CPC will draw out a plan both for the National Council for Staff Side and for the organizations at the Departmental levels. The scheduled date for meetings with the Pay Commission will be finalize after Holi festival i.e 5th March, 2015. The Staff Side will be discuss the matter and will submit its consensus view to the commission soon in this regard. In any case the staff side would require the following information immediately at its office :

1. Name of the Organization which has submitted its memorandum to CPC with date of submission.
2. Under which Ministry the Department Function.
3. Whether the organization is recognized or not
4. The number of employees, whom the organization represents.
5. The total-Group C and B Non Gazetted-Strength of the concerned Department.

INCLUSION OF GDS

The Chairman assured that he would go through the Supreme Court Judgement in the matter. However, he added that the inclusion or otherwise of the GDS within the purview of the 7th CPC in the prerogative of the Government and except making its opinion clear on the subject he might not be able to do anything further in the matter.

           With Greetings.

Yours Faithfully,
