LAHORE: Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has directed to all chief commissioners-IR, Regional Tax Office/LTUs, all chief collectors (Customs), all directors general-IR/Customs and all commissioners-IR (Appeals) to implement transfers and posting order in letter and spirit.
An FBR circular stated that it has been observed with concern that transfer/posting orders issued by the Board are not being timely implemented by the field formations. At times, the officers who are transferred/ posted do not relinquish charge deliberately or on the directions of their supervisory officers who do not want to relieve them on one pretext or another.
It was said this trend undermines the authority of FBR and tantamount to insubordination on the part of the concerned officers/officials as well as their higher ups, responsible for delaying the implementation of Board’s orders. It may once again be brought to the knowledge of all concerned that every transfer/posting order of BS-17 and above officers is finalized and approved by the Chairman, FBR/Secretary Revenue Division.
It was further stated the Competent Authority, taking a serious view of the aforementioned situation, has directed that henceforth all transfer/posting orders of the Board shall be implemented with immediate effect by the concerned officers.
The circular said supervisory officers shall also ensure that outgoing officers are relieved well in time, enabling them to assume charge at the new place of posting without any delay. The representations of the concerned officers/officials or the requests of the supervisory officers with regard to the review, revision or cancellation of such transfer/posting order may be sent to the Board for consideration of the Competent Authority, only after the implementation of such orders.
In addition to the above, all Heads of field formations are requested to submit compliance report regarding implementation of the transfer/posting orders issued by the Board within seven days of the issuance of orders, the circular further said.
