         The undersigned is directed to refer to the marginally noted Office Memoranda of this Ministry and to say that the Government have reviewed the policy regarding deputation of Government officers to Central public enterprises in the context of the need for toning up the performance of public enterprises.

 

          In supersession of all extant orders on the subject, it has been decided that deputation of all Government officers including those belonging to Defence Services, to all posts (whether Board-Level of below Board-level) in Central Public enterprises should, except in the cases mentioned in the following paragraph, not be permitted from the date of issue of this O.M.  Hereafter, such officers could join posts in the Central public enterprises only on immediate absorption basis.

(a)    Central Cottage Industries Corporation

(b)    Central Inland Water Transport Corporation

(c)    Central Warehousing Corporation

(d)    Cotton Corporation of India

(e)    Food  Corporation of India

(f)      Handicrafts & Handlooms Export Corporation Ltd.

The policy that Government employees joining public sector undertakings can do so only on ‘immediate absorption’ basis will also apply to employees of one public sector  undertaking joining other public sector undertakings, regardless of the level of the posts involved.

 

In respect of officers who acre already on deputation to Central public enterprises, the existing terms and conditions of their deputation will operate.  However, no extension of deputation beyond the periods specified in their deputation orders should be allowed.

 

The Administrative Ministries and the various cadre authorities are requested to take necessary steps to implement these decisions.
