OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Subject: Creation of own departmental pool of residential accommodation for their employees by various Ministries/ Departments of the Central Government-Regarding

As per the Ministry of Works, Housing and Urban Development, Directorate of Estates OM No.12033(4)7-Pol.II dated 3rd October 1969, Central Government offices who have their own pool of residential accommodation for their staff are not eligible for allotment of General Pool Residential Accommodation (GPRA). Further, as per the Ministry of Urban Development, Directorate of Estates letter No.12034/1/2004-Pol.III dated 7.3.2006, the Ministries/Departments of the Central Government who want to create their own their departmental pool of residential accommodation by construction or augmentation are required to consult the Directorate of Estates to ascertain the availabilty of GPRA and undertake the construction/augmentaion of their pool only after obtaining the No Objection Certificate from the Directorate of Estates.

2. If an office being eligible for allotment of GPRA creates its own departmental pool of accommodation for its employees, it becomes ineligible for allotment of accommodation from the General Pool in the light of the instructions contained in OM dated 3.10.1969. There is an acute shortage of GPRA in Delhi and the eligible officers have to wait up to 20 years depending upon category of accommodation for allotment from the General Pool. Keeping this in view, several Central Government offices want to create their own departmental pool of accommodation for their employees. However, the instructions issued vide OM dated 3.10.1969 are seen as Constraints for creation of departmental pool for fear of losing the eligibility for allotment from the General Pool.

3. In view of the above, the matter has been reviewed and it has been decided with the approval of the competent authority in the Ministry of Urban Development that the Central Government offices may be allowed to create their own departmental pool of residential accommodation and simultaneously be permitted to retain their ehgibdity for allotment of accommodation from the General Pool. The Ministries/Departments of the Central Government shall have to apply to Directorate of Estates for issue of No Objection Certificate for creation of their own pool of residential accommodation as per the instructions contained in Directorate of Estates letter dated 7.3.2006
