Procedure for processing the cases of officers in case the adverse entries in the confidential report are expunged or toned down , When ever cases of the eligible officers for confirmation are placed before a DPC the fact whether any represention from such officer against adverse entries in his confidential record is pending a decision of the competent authority, should be specifically brought to the notice of the DPC who may defer the decision on the case if it considers it necessary to do so till a decision has been taken on the represention. This procedure should also be followed where the officer has not submitted any such represention but the time allowed for the purpose is not over . Representations received after the time need not allowed need not be brought to the notice of the DPC , unless the competent authority has entertained them after condoning the delay .If the officer concerned is recommended for confirmation on the basis of the findings of the DPC on review, he should be confirmed whenever the first vacancy becomes available but the seniority already alloted to him on the basis of the review should not be disturbed by the delay in his confirmation.In other words , he will be deemed to be senior to his junior who may have been confirmed in the meantime .
