The I.C.A.C. special allowance was introduced as a means of attracting people of the right calibre and with experience in different fields into what was a new, somewhat isolated, and developing organisation. Its payment has been the subject of adverse comment from other civil servants and in the light of such comment we have considered whether it should be retained. After studying the purpose of the allowance, how it has worked, and its effect on recruitment and retention, we have concluded that there is still a need to provide an additional financial incentive to attract and retain staff of the right calibre. Furthermore, in the case of the non-departmental grades their subjection to more rigorous disciplinary provisions on joining the I.C.A.C. is an added justification for payment of the special allowance. We consider the present level of the allowance is still adequate for its purpose and recommend its continued payment to those staff who come within our Terms of Reference.
Date of Implementation

As the pay of the staff of the I.C.A.C. was an item deferred for further review in our Report No. 2, we recommend, in so far as it is practicable, that our proposals be implemented with effect from 1st October 1979, the date for implementation of the recommendations contained in our First Report on Civil Service Pay.
