Grant of increments

(1) A certified authorizing an (annual) increment for an Officer shall originate with the Officer’s immediate supervisor. The Clerk, after consultation with the supervisor, shall submit this certificate (together with his comments) to the Committee for approval. Such certificate must be signed one month before it is due and, if it is not approved, action shall be taken at that time to withhold the increment in accordance with the provisions of these Regulations. (2) An Officer, on return from study leave, is entitled to the grant of a normal increment for each successful year of study.
