loans taken by Government servants

(30) Amendment to Rule 18 of the Central Civil Services (Conduct) Rules, 1964.

Reference is invited to Explanation I below Rule 18 of the Central Civil Services (Conduct) Rules, 1964 wherein it has been inter-alia clarified that the expression "movable property" used in this rule will include "loans advanced by such Government servants whether secured or not". It has been decided that loans taken by Government servants should also be brought within the purview of Rule 18 of the CCS (Conduct) Rules, 1964. A formal amendment to Explanation I giving a clarification to this affect is being issued separately. In the meanwhile, the above position may be brought to the notice of all Government servants so that necessary sanction is obtained or intimation made in respect of all loans which require prior sanction/intimation under Rule 18 (3) of the CCS (Conduct) Rules, 1964 by virtue of this clarification.
