No. 30A/SA/7522, dated 20-10-1967.Sub.-Clearance of audit objections, draft paras, inspection reports and balances under remitance heads.The Government of Rajasthan, the Accountant General Raj. and the Chief Accounts Officer, Rajasthan have laid great stress on the expeditious settlement of items placed under objection relating to works and establishment, draft paras, audit inspection reports and clearances of balances under remitance heads, particularly "Items adjustable by Public works Department" and "Transfere between public work Officer". Soem of these items appear prominently in audit reports submitted to the Public Accounts Committee of the Rajasthan State Legislature to whom the Chief Engineer, Irrigation has to explain the position of the Department.In order to arrest the arrears and to watch the progress of clearance in this behalf it has been decided that the Senior Accounts Officer of the Headquarters office will collect the arrear position (6 monthly or at other suitable intervals) from the office of the Accountant General, Rajasthan and pass on the same to the concerned Offices, in addition to the information normally sent by the Accountant General, Rajasthan direct to the concerned offices. The Superintending Engineers and Sr. Accounts Officers as the base (or the opening balance) and directly submit monthly progress report in the enclosed proforma so as to reach the Headquarters Office by the 15th of every month. The additions made during the intervening period will not be exhibited in the progress reports though every attempt should be made to clear them as soon as possible within the prescribed time schedules. This will enable the Superintending Engineer, and the Headquarters Office to keep watch on the monthly clearance of the arrears as intimated by the Sr. Accounts Officer at periodical intervals. Full particulars of the items, paras or balances, settled should be indicated in the enclosures to the monthly progress report so that those items can be scored out from the lists maintained in the Circle Offices and the Headquarters Office. If any cases have been sent to the Superintending Engineer/Chief Engineer for sanction/orders etc. a list of such references shall be attached with the monthly report for expediting the cases in the offices. A copy of the monthly progress report with enclosures will be sent by the Divisional Officers to the Superintending Engineer concerned also who will keep watch on the progress of the clearance.This procedure will not vivest the Divisional/Circle Offices from their basic responsibility to clear the audit objections, inspection reports and balances under remitance heads and arrange necessary re-concilation with the records of the audit offices as hither to fore. In fact, this task will require good dealt of personal efforts on the part of assistants, Divisional Accountant and Heads of Offices.The progress made in this behalf will be kept in view while writing or counter-signing annual confidential reports.This standing order supplements the Standing Order No. 73 issued vide this office letters No. 30A/SA/11782, dated 31-12-64.The date of sending the monthly progress report should be entered in the Calender of Periodical Returns prescribed in the Standing Order No. 84, dated 21-7-67.List of outstanding audit objections, inspection report balances under I.A.
