A presentation on the web based work flow system regarding the complaints for
non compliance in pursuance to the decision of the Commission in case no.
CIC/WB/C/2008/00859, 00862 & 00863 was made. The presentation generated some
discussion as to whether the complaints for non compliance should be registered
afresh or should it be dealt in with the old file itself. It was decided
finally to register the cases of non compliance and the web base work flow
system was approved.
Agenda Item 3: Note of IC (SG) for discussion
a. The Commission desired that the legal opinion on the concern raised by one
of the members regarding writs against the decisions of the commission in
various courts be taken. The Commission reiterated the requirement to invite
Professor Nigam, Legal Advisor in every first meeting of the month.
b. A note on the penalty imposed and the recoveries made was presented before
the commission. It was intimated to the Commission that so far around 77% of
the penalty amount is accounted for. In remaining cases action has not been
initiated either since their status is not known or they have still
not matured. It is further observed that the compliance of the
decision of the Commission regarding recovery of the penalty generally takes
3-4 months as per the available trend. In other cases, where the Commission
has directed the recovery in
installments, it takes up to 8-9 months (assuming the amount to be recovered in
5 monthly installments). The Commission will review recovery of penalties every
quarter.
c. The delays in distribution of dak from the central receipt to various units
is a serious problem. The Commission directed the Administration to ensure in
first phase that the dak is diarized and distributed in 3/4 days of its receipt
and finally the time period be reduced to 24 hours by which time the dak should
be distributed.

Convention of the Commission will be inaugurated by HE President of India and
