Travelling Allowance to Provincial Employees Attending meeting of Autonomous Bodies dt 04.01.2007
OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject: Travelling Allowance
I am directed to refer to the above-mentioned subject and to say that some autonomous bodies have provisions in their TA Rules to pay TA/ DA to the members attending the meetings of the bodies like Senate, Syndicate. Board of Governors and different committees constituted under the relevant Act / Ordinance for disposal of their business. It has been noticed that ex-officio members representing the Government Departments in these bodies also at times, opt to draw TA/ DA from the fund of the autonomous bodies rather than to draw TA/ DA from the Government under the Punjab Travelling Allowance Rules.
2. It has accordingly been decided that ex-officio members representing the Government in the meetings of the autonomous bodies shall claim TA/ DA under the Punjab Travelling Allowance Rules only from the Department who has nominated them to attend the meeting.
