The undersigned is directed to say that Office Councils/Regional Councils under JCM are presently functioning in various Ministries/Departments and their attached and subordinate offices. With the notification of the CCS (RSA) Rules, 1993, all the Associations/Unions recognized before notification of these rules and represented on the JCM Councils, were required to seek recognition afresh under the said Rules to enable reconstitution of JCM Councils within a specified period upto 4.5.95. The staff representatives of the JCM Councils are nominated by the recognized Associations/Unions for a fixed term of 3 years, however, as process of recognition of new associations was not completed within the prescribed time upto 4.5.95, the JCM Councils were allowed to continue to function based on the position as on 4.5.95 till the process of recognition was completed.
2. The process of recognition under 1993 rules has completed in most of the Ministries/Departments. As a consequence, however, the Council, have not been reconstituted or revived. It is suggested that Ministries/Departments may review the position and reconstitute Office Councils/Regional Councils wherever necessary. In so far as the Service Associations/Unions of Central Secretariat staff are concerned, the status position is indicated below:-

2.1 In respect of associations shown at S.No.5 to 9 above, none of the associations could muster the minimum 35% membership for recognition and hence the process of re-verification is under way by CS Division of Department of Personnel & Training.
3. Nominations in respect of seats ear-marked for the Secretariat staff on the Councils may be obtained by writing direct to the associations recognized at the central level ( and not the Branch Units) subject to the conditions that the staff representative(s) so nominated should be an employee of the Departments/Offices concerned for which the council has been constituted. There is also no objection to keep the staff seats vacant if no recognized associations are available to represent any particular category of staff for whom seats have been earmarked on the Council. Such vacant seats may be filled up as soon as Unions/Associations obtain recognition under the relevant rules.
