Original Rule Text
13.64 On or before the 1st September in each year, i.e. as soon as possible after the examination of the books of establishment, the Accountant General should if so required by Government submit to the Government concerned a list in From 69 of the gazetted
Government servants other than members of Defence Services who, during the next official year, will be due to retire on attaining the age of superannuation or on the expiry of a term of extension of service. The object of this return which has to be furnished by the Accountant General only in those States where the arrangement is in vogue is to enable the Government to pass the necessary orders regarding their retention in or retirement from the service. In the case of Officers of the Defence Services, the Accountant General should annually obtain lists of the officers affected by the rule who are employed in departments and offices under his jurisdiction and should pass no more pay to those named therein, except where it can be shown that there is authority for their continued employment.
G. E. Accountant’s Duties
What This Means
By September 1st each year (after examining establishment books), the AG must submit to the Government a list (Form 69) of gazetted officers due to retire by superannuation or end of service extension during the next official year. This helps the Government decide on retention or retirement. For Defence Service officers in civil employ, the AG obtains annual retirement lists and stops pay for officers who have no authority for continued employment.
