During the meeting, it was further directed that the Administration Wing should formulate a policy whereby a Departmental Promotion Committee (DPC) for all CDA employees will be held on an annual basis.
In this regard, it was directed that pre-requisite formalities for promotion should also be finalized, including seniority issues. It was further noticed that there was no uniform policy for allocation of or allotment of CDA vehicles. In this regard, Ahmed directed that rules for allocation of the authority’s vehicles should be prepared and rationalized fuel limits should be set according to the category of the vehicle.
The rationalization policy is expected to bring about a 10 per cent reduction in fuel usage. Furthermore, the new rules will see drafting of a new vehicle allocation criteria which will be based on seniority, field duty while factoring in the monetization rules and policy.
