Order

No. 50/3(58)/Elec/Gen/61(1)/RCS/2008/2551

Read:

Circular No. 50/3(58)/Elec/Gen/61(1)/RCS/

/2008 dated 29-10-2014 reproduced as

Annexure A to this Order.

(Under Section 69 of the Goa Co-operative

Societies Act, 2001)

In exercise of the powers conferred upon the

undersigned Registrar of Co-operative Societies

under Section 69 of the Goa Co-operative Societies

Act, 2001 (Act No. 36 of 2001) and to ensure proper

implementation of Co-operative provisions, proper

management of the business of all the Co-operative

Societies functioning in the State of Goa this Order

is hereby issued as under.

This office vide Circular referred above enclosed

as Annexure A herewith, had fixed the duties and

responsibilities of the Assistant Election Officer,

Returning Officer to be discharged while

conducting elections to the Board of Directors of

2386

OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA

SERIES II No. 30

27TH OCTOBER, 2022

the Co-operative Societies. Point Nos. 13 & 14 of

said Circular had laid down the scales of

honorarium that may be paid to the Officials/

/Officers engaged for conduct of the elections.

The Government has reconsidered this issue of

payment of honorarium in the light of provisions of

Rule 52 of the Goa Co-operative Societies Rules,

2003 the extracts of which are reproduced herein-

below.

The Rule 52(g)(ii) of the Goa Co-operative

Societies Rules, 2003 states that,

“The expenses of holding of any election to such

society, including payment of travelling allowances,

daily allowance and other remuneration if any, to the

persons appointed to exercise the powers and perform

the duties in respect of election shall be borne by

such society concerned. For this purpose, the

Registrar or the Chief Election Officer or the Assistant

Election Officer may call upon such society to deposit

in the Co-operative Societies Election Fund, such

amount as he considers necessary for the conduct of

elections within such period as may be directed by

the Registrar”.

The above provision does not provide for payment

of any honorarium to the Department Officials/

Officers engaged for conduct of the election. It is

also noted that it is a regular duty and function of

the Officials/Officers working in this department to

conduct periodic elections/audits, etc. of the

Co-operative Societies under their respective

jurisdictions. Hence, this is a part and parcel of

daily normal routine office work/field work and does

not qualify for grant of any honorarium.

The above stated provisions of Rules clearly

provide that the persons appointed for election

duties are eligible to claim T.A./D.A. and the

expenditure towards this T.A./D.A. is to be borne by

the concerned Society whose elections are being

held.

Hence the practice of payment of honorarium to

the department officials/officers engaged for

conduct of the elections of co-operative societies is

reconsidered and the contents of point No. 13 & 14

of said office Circular No. 50/3(58)/Elec/Gen/61(1)/

RCS/2008 dated 29th October, 2014 stand deleted

with immediate effect and all other points of said

Circular remain unchanged.

It is further directed that all department

Officials/Officers engaged for conduct of the

elections of Co-operative Societies shall be eligible

to draw Travelling Allowance/Daily Allowance as

per T. A./D.A. Rules in force as applicable to

Government Servants. The T.A./D.A. Bill shall be

prepared in prescribed Forms as provided under

T A/DA Rules and after passing of the Bill, instead

of sending bill for payment to Directorate of

Accounts, the amount shall be paid from

Co-operative Election Fund like all other election

expenditure.

This issues with the approval of the Government

conveyed vide U.O. No. 536/F dated 20-10-2022.

Societies) & ex officio Joint Secretary (Co-operation).
