Dear

The Government is in the process of appointment of Information Commissioners(s) in the Central Information Commission at Delhi. The Central Information Commission is a statutory organisation. It adjudicates on complaints and appeals received against Central Government Public Authorities.

2. The Right to Information Act, 2005 mandates constitution of a Central information Commission (CIC), consisting of the Chief Information Commissioner and such number of Information Commissioners not exceeding ten as may be deemed necessary. At present the Central information Commissioner is assisted by eight Information Commissioners.

3. The number of appeals and complaints are on increase in the Central Information Commission and the Commission is finding it difficult to cope up with the pendency with the existing number of Information Commissioners. It is thus necessary to appoint two more Information Commissioners in the Central Information Commission, in accordance with the established procedure.

4. As per the Act, the appointment is made by the President on the recommendation of a Selection Committee comprising:

(i) The Prime Minister- The Chairperson of the Committee; (ii) The Leader of Opposition in the ; and (iii) A Union Cabinet Minister nominated by the Prime Minister.

5. The Government is making all efforts to complete the selection process by end of March, 2014. However, having regard to the nature of the various activities involved in this process, it is likely that the entire process may spill over beyond March, 2014 by one or two weeks. This possibility is being brought to the notice of the Election Commission of India for kind information, having regard to the fact that general elections to the Lok Sabha are due very shortly.

With warm regards, Yours sincerely,

Reference Note on pre-page.

A reference forwarded by PMO from Sh. Satyanand Mishra, Ex. Chief Information Commissioner with regard to need of obtaining vigilance clearance for appointment of Information Commissioners and other statutory positions, is under examination in this file.

2. He has suggested that there may not be any need of Vigilance Clearance for appointment of Information Commissioners and other Statutory positions, if the person concerned, at the time of appointment or few months prior to that was serving as Secretary to the Govt. of India, which will avoid unnecessary delay in such appointments for want of Vigilance Clearance. A detailed note in this regard may be seen at pg. 20-23/ante.

3. In this connection, it was decided to put the issue on hold and put up the file when the next appointment of ICs takes place.

4. Since the appointment of Information Commissioners in the Central Information Commission is on with last date of receiving applications 25.03.2014. File is re-submitted for further direction.

5. It is pertinent to mention that since Secretary(P) is one of the applicants for the said post, he has recused himself from handling the file for selection of ICs in the CIC. It has been further mentioned in the said note that JS (AT & A) may submit the file directly to MoS (PP) on the subject.

Submitted please.
