Some Blogs have said that Shri. Raminder Singh Gujral ,IAS,
the Finance Secretary , might be appointed as Member secretary of 7th Pay
Commission. But the fact is he is retiring from the service on 30th November
2013. New Finance Secretary will be appointed after the approval of the
Appointment Committee of the Cabinet. But the issue here is not regarding who
will be the next Finance secretary. The issue is ‘can the retiring official be
appointed as Member secretary to the 7th Pay Commission? . It is needed to
mention that the previous pay commissions did not have retired bureaucrats as its
Member secretary. The serving bureaucrats only appointed as Member Sectary of
all the Pay commissions except the First Pay Commission.
The
first pay Commission did not have a Member secretary. Its secretary was Shri.
K.R.P.Aiyangar
The
Member Secretaries of later Pay commissions were…
The Second Pay
Commission- Shri. L.P. Singh, ICS.
The Third Pay Commission – Shri . Shri H.N. Ray, ICS.
The Fourth Pay Commission – Shri .A.K. Majumdar, IAS.
The Fifth Pay Commission – Shri M.K Kaw,IAS.
The Sixth Pay Commission- Smt.Sushma Nath,IAS.
So the Seventh Pay Commission also will have a serving bureaucrats as its Member secretary

Number of Members of
Central Pay commission
with regard to the number of Members of the past six
pay commissions, there seems to be a declining trend
