Supplementary claims received where the earlier claim was admitted by some other office may be forwarded to that particular office for linking and auditing of the same. |
| vii) | Para 242 and 243 of Defence Audit Code amply clarifies the term “Air Passage” as the Exchange Orders from the airlines for the Ex-India claims in rio Army Personnel/ Defence Civilians to be centrally dealt by PCDA, New Delhi and not the other incidental charges associated with the Ex India claims. | PCDA, New Delhi may continue to deal with Ex-India Air Passage claims in r/o Army personnel and defence Civilians as stipulated in Para 242 of Defence Audit Code. |
