New Delhi: The Committee on Allowances, tasked with reviewing the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission on allowances, was given four months to submit its report. Later, the deadline was extended to February 22, 2017, has not yet submitted its report to the government.

In a written reply to a question on 7th Pay Commission in Lok Sabha on March 10, Minister of State for Finance Arjun Ram Meghwal said the Committee, under Finance Secretary Ashok Lavasa, is yet to submit its report.

The minister said that the deliberations of the committee are in the final stages.

The Committee on Allowances was formed in July 2016 following protests by government employees over recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission on allowances.

The 7th Pay Commission had recommended of abolishing 51 allowances and subsuming 37 others out of 196 allowances.

In July, the Finance Minister Arun Jaitley constituted a committee under Finance Secretary Ashok Lavasa to review the recommendations. The committee was given four months’ time to submit the report to Finance Minister.

In October, Ashok Lavasa was quoted by some agencies as saying that he was ready with the report.

Later, the Finance Minister extended the deadline for report submission to February 22, 2017. Now, going by Minister of State for Finance’s reply, it seems government employees will have to wait longer before they can hear some news on hike in allowances.

According to some reports, the Committee on Allowances has decided that the current HRA slab, which is 30 per cent of basic pay, for metros would continue against reducing the House Rent Allowance (HRA) for central government employees. The 7th Pay Commission suggested bringing down the HRA to 24 per cent, 16 per cent and 8 per cent respectively depending on type of cities.

The transport allowance is likely to remain constant as certain reports said the Committee on Allowances agreed with 7th Pay Commission’s recommendation, which had already factored in the Dearness Allowance at 125 per cent assuming the date of implementation to be January 1 next year.

7th Pay Commission: Central govt employees expect Committee on Allowances report in February

 After repeated rumours and statements on when and what the Committee of Allowances under Finance Secretary will roll out for central government employees, there is more news to fire the expectations of government employees.

The Convener of National Joint Council of Action (NJCA), in a circular to its members wrote on Thursday about his recent meeting with the Cabinet Secretary said,” The Cabinet Secretary informed us that, pension issues have already been referred to the Cabinet, and the report of the Committee on Allowances is likely to be submitted in the next month”.

The Cabinet Secretary is also reported to have assured NJAC that the issue of Minimum Wage and Fitment Formula is also being vigorously pursued by the government.

Cabinet Secretary is reported to have told Mishra that the inordinate delay in allowances was because of the various problems, but the intention of the government is very clear that, they want to resolve the problems of the Central Government Employees and advised the employees to have patience for some time and given us an assurance that he would try to get resolved pending issues of the Central Government Employees as early as possible.
