Issue of `No Demand Certificate' in case of Interpool exchange of Government accommodation

(2) Issue of `No Demand Certificate' in case of Interpool exchange of Government accommodation. - 1. Interpool exchange of the General Pool accommodation with Departmental or other Autonomous Bodies accommodation is occasionally made in certain cases so that an Officer occupying a particular quarter does not have to shift unnecessarily at a particular station. In such cases, the Department concerned is required to deposit the licence fee collected from the allottee with the Directorate of Estates. Sometimes the Department fails to deposit the licence fee even though they have actually recovered the same from the officer occupying the accommodation in question. The amount remains in arrears in some cases even after termination of interpool exchange. Meanwhile if the allottee retires, he is not issued the `No Demand Certificate' on the ground that some dues for the period of exchange have not been 1/30/2019 CHAPTER VIII http://persmin.nic.in/pension/rules/pencomp8.htm#Preparation%20of%20list%20of%20Government%20servants%20due%20for%20retirement 5/58 settled, not withstanding the fact that the allottee had paid the licence fee to the department. As a result the allottee suffers, because part of his gratuity is withheld pending issue of `No Demand Certificate'. 2. After due consideration it has been decided that the `No Demand Certificate' should not be withheld in respect of retired officer merely on the ground that some adjustment of dues between two organisations is pending for the period the quarter remained exchanged with departmental pool, provided there are no other dues to be recovered from the officer for other period and it has also been certified by the department concerned that the officer had actually paid the licence fee to the department, where he remained posted during the period the quarter was exchanged with department pool.
