Study Tour of Union Representatives to the Royal Mail, London.
.
A Delegation consisting of eight Union Representatives of FNPO and NFPE visited Royal Mail from 18th to 23rd of October, 2010. The delegation was lead by Shri A.K. Sharma, DDG (Estt.) and Shri Subhash Chander, Director (SR) co-ordinated the tour. The tour was arranged by India Post. The FNPO was represented by the General Secretaries of Postmen & Group D/ MTS, NAPE P-III, NU R-IV Shri T.N. Rahate, Shri D. Kishan Rao and Shri A.H. Siddique respectively.
For Shri T.N. Rahate, General Secretary NUPE P-IV it was a second occasion to visit foreign country i.e. London on Study Tour as he has already visited Germany Deutsche Post in Study Tour during 23rd to 27th March, 2009.
The tour is successful in as much as the Union Representatives has got a chance to observe the urgent need of the technological change of the Post due to the liberalization of Postal markets in both the countries to improve the efficiency and for a level playing field with other market operators besides maintaining the UPSO obligation as both the countries are committed for the UPSO. UK regulation and liberalization started in 1-1-2006 and mail regulator came into existence and 50 operators are granted licenses besides the Royal Mail in the market without the UPSO. The strength of the Royal Mail is its unique door-to-door delivery system like India Post with 1,48,000 frontline employees, 4,50,000 collections a day, 27 million delivery points, 33,000 vehicles plus 29 Aircrafts, 27,000 bicycles.
This tour was especially arranged to study the working pattern of Royal Mail, London especially to mention here that the British Government has established India Post in our country and the same Postal Department at London and British commonwelfare.
The delegation visited the officers of Royal Mail, London and observed that at par with our country the door-to-door delivery through Postman is being served by foot, in trolley, by bicycle and with van.

Ist & IInd Class Mails is being delivered by the separate postman whereas a separate Postman is given for delivery of special mails and another separate postman deliveres parcel etc. For all the different mail deliveries a separate postman is used. All the deliveries are different but it is deliveried only once in a day. We have been pleased to note that the Sorting pattern is very good at Royal Mail due to proper use of mechanism. The Sorting of all Delivery Zone is being made at one and the same spot by Beatwise, Officewise with the help of machine.
The Front Side of Post Offices is work place of Postal Business and backside of Post Offices is assigned only for Mail and delivery process of Royal Mail which is Government Ltd. Enterprises. However, it was really a very good tour organised by the Department and the result of the Tour is fruitful for the further improvement of Postal Services in the Department.
The Royal Mail suffered losses to the tune of 100 million pounds in 2008-09 and borrowed 1.2 billion pounds to interest for changing the infrastructure and improving efficiency to compete with the other operators in the Market.
The India Post and the Royal Mail has the similarities in the nature, but, for the modernisation and the advancement in the technology to meet the market challenges.

INTEREST BEARING ADVANCE / SIXTH CENTRAL PAY COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION ON HOUSE BUILDING ADVANCE-ENHANCEMENT IN PAST – REGARDING.
Copy of OM No. I-17011/2/\(1)/2009-H.III dated 14th July,2010 from Ministry of Urban Development (Housing-III Section) , New Delhi.
Sub: Interest bearing advance /Sixth Central Pay Commission recommendation on House Building Advance-enhancement in past – regarding
The undersigned is directed to invite attention to this Ministry's O.M. No. 1-17011/11(3\4)/2008-H.III dated 27th November, 2008 on the above subject and to say that it has been decided in consultations with Ministry of Finance to make the afore-said orders applicable with effect from 1st January, 2006. Accordingly, an enhancement of House Building Advance, if applied for, may be granted for an amount equivalent to the difference between the previously sanctioned amount and the new amount determined on the basis of pay in the pay band, in past case, where HBA was sanctioned on or after 1-1-2006 but before 27-11-2008 subject to complying following conditions:
(a) The Government servant should not have drawn the entire amount of HBA sanctioned under earlier orders and /or where construction is not completed /full cost towards acquisition of house /flat is yet to be paid.
(b) There will be no deviation from the approved plan of construction on the basis of which the original sanction of House Building Advance was accorded. The revised cost of the original plan can, however, be considered for determining the additional amount, subject to the prescribed maximum limits.
(c) Supplementary Mortgage Deed, Personal Bond and Sureties will be drawn and executed at the expense of the loanee.
(d) The actual entitlement will be restricted to the repaying capacity computed on the basis of the formula laid down in this Ministry's O.M. No. 1-17015/16/92-H.III. dated 17.10.2000. It should be ensured that the entire amount of advance with interest is recovered before retirement on the Government servant.
Sub: Interest bearing advance /Sixth Central Pay Commission recommendation on House Building Advance-enhancement in past – regarding

No. 1-17011/11(3\4)/2008-H.III dated 27th November, 2008 on the above subject and to say that it has been decided in consultations with Ministry of Finance to make the afore-said orders applicable with effect from 1st January, 2006.

(a) The Government servant should not have drawn the entire amount of HBA sanctioned under earlier orders and /or where construction is not completed /full cost towards acquisition of house /flat is yet to be paid.

It should be ensured that the entire amount of advance with interest is recovered before retirement on the Government servant.
(e) Rate of Interest: The rate of interest chargeable in such cases would be as per the slab applicable to the total sanctioned amount i.e. amount already sanctioned on or after 1-1-2006 but before 27-11-2008 plus the enhanced sanction. However, the new rate of interest would be chargeable only on collective amount that would remain outstanding on grant of enhancement of HBA i.e., the unpaid portion of previously sanction HBA plus the enhancement so granted. Thus, the amount of HBA that has already been re-paid on old rates will not attract the fresh interest charges.
2. However, the existing limit of maximum admissible amount of Rs. 7.50 lakh for the purpose of construction /purchase of new house /flat and Rs. 1.80 lakh would remain unchanged. In other words, the sum total of previously sanctioned HBA and the enhancement granted under these orders cannot exceed the aforesaid limits. In nay case, not more than one enhancement is admissible to Govt. employees.
3. The applications for enhancement HBA should be submitted within six months from the date of issue of this order.
4. Ministries/Departments whose branch offices are situated in the far flung areas like in case of Ministry of Defence, etc., are advised to give wider publicity to these orders through modern communication means like facsimile, e-mail, web-site, etc. so that there is no occasion for any representationfor extending the time limit of six months on the grounds of receiving these orders late.
