CBEC - Don't shift Commissionerates without Board's Permission
CBEC has found that some Commissionerates are not where they ought to be.
It has come to the notice of the Board that some Audit Commissionerates are functioning from the locations at variance with the locations notified in Cadre Restructuring Notifications issued on 16th September, 2014.
Since such a situation may create administrative and legal complications, it has been decided with the approval of Chairman, CBEC that the change in the location of the headquarters of the Commissionerates (Audit, Executive or Appeal) should be made only after the approval of the Board.
Accordingly, Board directs that Principal Chief Commissioner / Chief Commissioner should first obtain the approval of Zonal Member for any proposal for change of location of the headquarters of a Commissionerate (Audit, Executive or Appeal) under their charge. Thereafter, the proposal(s), so approved by the Zonal Member, should be forwarded to the Member (P&V) with a copy to the Office of DG (HRD) for examination. After examination of the proposal(s), DGHRD would submit the same to the Chairman, CBEC, through Member (P&V) for approval. Wherever the proposal has financial implications, necessary approval of lFU to the proposal would also be obtained. After obtaining approval of all the concerned authorities, DGHRD would communicate the decision to the Central Excise Policy Wing of the Board for issue of necessary amendments to the notifications.
