Recovery of leave salary and pension contributions in respect of Federal Government employees on deputation to foreign service within Pakistan or abroad.—It has been decided to prescribe a uniform rate of recovery of pension contributions at 33-1/3% of the mean of minimum and maximum of the pay scale of the grade held by the government servant concerned at the time of his proceeding on foreign service, plus other emoluments (reckonable for pension) which would have been admissible to him had he not been deputed on foreign service. The above prescribed rate of pension contributions shall apply to all Federal Government employees whether on deputation to foreign service within Pakistan or abroad.

The question as to how the period of service rendered under the Government in such cases should be treated for the purpose of grant of pension by the autonomous organizations concerned has been under the consideration of the Government for some time past. It has been decided that such cases should be dealt with in the following manner:—
(a)
In the case of an employee of an autonomous/semi-autonomous organization, who renders service in a Government department on deputation, the concerned department may make payment of pension contributions to the autonomous organization concerned at the prescribed rates, subject to the following conditions:—
(i)
The appointment of the individual concerned in the Government department on deputation was made with the consent of the head of the autonomous organization and with the approval of the competent authority in the Government department concerned, in accordance with the normal procedure for making such appointments.
(ii)
The regular employees of the autonomous organization concerned are entitled, under specific rules of the organization for the purpose, to the same benefits of pension as are admissible to the civil servants of the Federal Government, and the employee concerned had rendered qualifying service for pension in his parent organization before his appointment on deputation in the Government department concerned.
