(1)The head copyist shall ordinarily indent for plain sheets from the treasury or sub-treasury once a month. To minimize work in the treasury the indent should be for a whole number of reams of 480 sheets. This number should not be larger than is necessary to ensure that the stock in hand will never be less than will suffice for a month. The indent should be in duplicate on unofficial memorandum forms. One copy will ultimately remain in the treasury office and one with the head copyist. The indent should be countersigned by the clerk.of Court or a gazetted officer.(2)The head copyist shall every day give to each copyist as many blank sheets as will approximately suffice for the day's work and see that each evening each copyist returns to him the number given, whether used, unused or spoilt and the notes of these transactions shall be kept in a rough note book.Note. - The head copyist is responsible for the correct balance of blank sheets. He should be provided with a box and a good lock for the custody of blank sheets.(3)The head copyist shall indent for court-fee stamps, whenever required, from the treasury or sub-treasury. The indents shall invariably be for whole sheets, whatever be the denomination of the stamps. The stamps required may be ten paise, twenty paise, forty paise, eighty paise and one rupee. The head copyist shall not obtain stamps from a stamp-vendor without the express permission of the Judge or gazetted officer-in-charge of the copying section.Note. - The head copyist should make every effort to reduce the number of indents upon the treasury, the indents should, therefore, be as large as possible.(4)The head copyist may include court-fee stamps as part of his cash balance which is sent daily to the Nazir in a sealed leather bag and court-fee stamps shall be reckoned as cash for all account purposes.
