The Committee wish to express their thanks to the officers of the Ministrie'3 for appearing before the Committee and furnishing the infor- 'mation desired by them. 4. The Committee considered and adopted this Report at their sitting held on 16 March, 1982. The Minutes of the sittings which form part of the Report are, appended to it. 5. A statement showing the summary of recommendations/observations of the Committee is also appended to the Report (Appendix I). n IMPLEMENTATION OF RECOMMENDATION CONTA,INED IN PARAGRAPH 62 OF THE SIXTH REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON SUBORDINATE LEGISLATION (SIXTH LOK SABHA) RE. TIlE ALL INDIA SERVICES (LEAVB TRAVEL CONCES- SION) RULES. 1975 (G.S.R. 225 OF 1975) 6. RU'le 3 of the All India Services (Leave Travel Concession) Rules, 1975 states as under:- '~ of Leave Travel Conc:~ioD:-The leave travel con· cession of a member of the service shall be regulated in the 2 same manner, and subject to the same conditions, as are applicable to the oflkers of Central Civil Services, Class I." 7. Attention Of the Cabinet Secretariat (Department of Personnel and Administrative Reforms) was drawn to the recommendation made by the Committee on Subordinate Legislation in paragrapbs 12-13 of their Pint , Report (Fourth Lok Sabha) that Rules 'Ghould bf self-contained and legis- lation by reference should be a voided as far as, possible. They were requested to state whether they had any objection to making the abovo Rules self-contained. 8. In their reply, the Cahinet Secretariat (Department of Personnel and Administrative Reforms) stated 86 under:- .......... the matter has been examined carefully in consultation with the Ministry of Law, JUlStice and Company A,ffairi (.Department of Legal Affairs). 'Legislation by reference' can be '8Ssailed mainly on the groWlds: (i) it has resulted in exces- sive )egi"lation by the Subordinate Legislation Authority and (ii) it causes inconvenience to the consumers i.e. people who are frequently required to refer to the legislation. Since in both the cases, it is tbe Centra) Government which issues the orders, there is no question of delegation of the authority. Rule 3 of the All India Services (Leave Travel Concession) Rules, is a very small nile and makes reference to only on.e set of orders, copies of which have been/will be supplied to· the State Governments and the Accountants General, who are frequently required to refer to these orders. 'Further it would not be feasible to make sel'f-contained rules by incorporat~ ing the various in.c;tructions issued from time, to time in reGpect of officers of Central Civil Services Class I. Even if such a set of rules were to be framed, then as and when the exe- cutive instructions are modified, the statutory rules would require to be amended. There would invariably be a time-lag between the date of issue of executive instructions and· the date of the amen~,ent to the statutory rules.
