Note—Previous sanction of the authority referred to in column 4 should be obtained wherever necessary. The concession should be allowed only in exceptional cases when a conveyance is required for strictly official duties at a place where no suitable means of conveyance can be hired, and it is shown that the public interest would suffer if the government servant concerned were to send on his conveyance by road instead of dispatching it by the quickest means at his command. For example, if there be no motorable road leading to the place of inspection, or the road is breached by a flood, it may be necessary in the public interest to send a motor car by rail instead of by road but if a motor-car can be dispatching by road in less time than by rail then the concession is not admissible.

The concession should not be allowed to a government servant, who sends forward his conveyance in order to avoid the expenses of hiring a means of conveyance on a journey for which he draws travelling allowance since that is a charge which the travelling allowance is meant to cover. It is also not admissible for the purpose of enabling a government servant to meet the charges for conveyance to his station of a car, or cycle purchased from a place at a distance.
