Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani has approved the rules/policy
for “Compulsory Monetization of Transport Facility for Civil Servants
(BPS-20 to 22). The rules/policy was formulated in line with the
decision of the Cabinet in its meeting held on 03-06-2011.
The
application of the monetization policy will be compulsory for all Civil
Servants (BS-20 to 22) as per the approved parameters. The salient
features of the proposed policy include:-
According to the proposed policy, there will be complete ban on
purchase of staff cars while no officer of BS-20 to BS-22 will be
entitled and authorized to use project vehicles or the departmental
operational/general duty vehicles for any kind of duty.
Services of the regular permanent driver will be offered to BS-20 to
BS-22 civil servants on optional basis on deduction of Rs. 10,000/-per
month from the monetized value. There will be no new recruitment of
drivers.
The implementation of the policy would result in likely savings of Rs. 1.369 billion per annum. SANA
