NO:11-TR(1)/2004 |
Dated January 13, 2004 |
|
Sub: Issuance of DGS Orders, Circulars, M.S. Notices ..... | |
|
This Directorate issues the DGS Orders, DGS Circulars, M.S. Notices etc. from time to time promulgating new rules, procedures and practices, as required, in order to streamline, strengthen and facilitate the shipping sector in India.
So far, when ever a new order was issued, hard copies were being
issued to the associations, Unions etc.
However, this is a tedious, unwarranted and time consuming practice
as it involves wastage of
time, stationery and places a
huge burden on the Government exchequer towards postage etc. .
Accordingly, it is now decided to cease this practice of issuing hard
copies of orders. This Directorate is in the process of implementation
e-governance and one of the objectives of e-governance is to bring
about a paperless office. This order is the first step to achieve this
objective.
This Directorate has website having two URLs;
www.dgshipping.com
or http://dgshipping.nic.in.
The websites are updated immediately
when a new order is issued. These
websites are accessible 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.
The new orders/instructions etc. are displayed under the head “News”
and remain flagged under this head for a week , thereby, facilitating in
tracing the newly issued orders. Accordingly, all concerned are hereby
requested to, henceforth, access the websites of DGS on a regular basis
and download the latest instructions and orders issued by this Directorate
from time to time.
For
those associations, organizations, who are directly involved in the
process of implementation of these orders, the details of the e-mail and
contact person/s should be forwarded to this Directorate at the address
dgship@dgshipping.com,
while indicating the orders/instructions etc. which are related to your
organisation . For example, the Training Institutes will indicate that
they are concerned with the amendments brought about by the Training
Branch, Crew Branch etc of this Directorate.
This will enable this Directorate in creating “groups” so that
whenever a new order, notice, circular etc. is issued the concerned
"group" will
be intimated . However, it
should be noted that it will be the responsibility of all concerned to
continuously update the
information about the orders issued by the Directorate by accessing the
DGS websites regularly.
If at any point of time any difficulty is experienced in accessing
the DGS websites, it
may kindly be brought to the notice of Computer Cell of this
Directorate at the e-mail ID
dgship@dgshipping.com.
This circular comes into force with immediate effect |
