New Delhi: The Seventh Pay Commission is
likely to recommend the government to form a permanent pay panel to give
recommendations to the government from time to time on issues pertaining to pay
structure of central government employees.
The permanent
pay panel would recommend regular salary hikes in keeping with the rate of
inflation.
The formation
of the permanent pay panel would help raise the salaries and allowances of
central government officials and employees, an official of the pay panel said.
He added the
permanent pay panel would recommend salary and allowance hikes in keeping with
the rising inflation rate, which will be implemented by the government. “Then
it will not be necessary to form a new commission during the next several years
for central government employees.”
However, the
Seventh Pay Commission got one month extension to submit its recommendations.
Accordingly it
is expected to submit its report by the end of September. The time allotted for
the commission ends this month.
The government
appointed the Seventh Pay Commission on 28 February 2014 under chairman,
Justice Ashok Kumar Mathur, with a time frame of 18 months to make its
recommendations
“There are some
data points that are missing, which we hope to get by this month end. We are
trying to submit the report by 20 September,” the official of the pay panel
also said.
The
government’s salary bill will rise by 9.56% to Rs 1,00,619 crore with the
implementation of the recommendations of the Seventh Pay Commission, according to
a statement tabled in Parliament by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on August 12.
