CS writes to GS to intimate present position of Grade pay of IPs

The CS wrote to GS through e-mail and got reply as follows:

Sir,
Many thanks for your sincere effort for bringing more benefits to the cadre od IPs/ASPs.
Is there any further development as regards approval of enhanced Grade Pay of IPs by Cabinet ?
The Finance Ministry has clarified on 19.11.2008 that the TA entilements including the amount of food bill is a matter of reimbursement which requires supporting vouchers. Hence, whether or not Directorate is going to issue circular exempting Inspectorial staff to produce food bill in c/w tour to BOs/remote areas?
