1961, from the Chief Secretary to Government, Punjab to all Heads of Departments etc., etc.

I am directed to address you on the subject noted above and to say that the question as to
whether the office bearers of recognised Service Association should be given some kind of special
casual leave to enable them to participate in the activities of the Associations has been engaging the
attention of Government for sometime past. After careful consideration of the whole matter, it has been
decided that casual leave upto a maximum of ten days in a calendar year may be allowed to office
bearers of the recognised Service Associations for participating in executive meetings, conferences
and other activities of their respective Associations subject, however, to the condition that half of the
leave enjoyed in this manner will be debited to the ordinary casual leave account of the official
concerned and the remaining half to this special casual leave account for the aforesaid purpose. The
maximum number of special casual leave allowed in this matter shall, therefore be five days in a year.
