Office of the Registrar of Co-operative Societies,

CIRCULAR No. 16/76

Sub:   Co-operative Societies-Government nominees on the Board of Directors of Co-operative Societies-Duties and responsibilities-Instructions-Issued.

Under Section 31 of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act Government or any authority specified by the Government in this behalf shall have the right to nominate certain number of members to the Committees of certain Societies in which Government have got financial interest.  Accordingly nominations are made by the Deputy Registrars or Registrar or Government as the case may be.  The nominated Directors stand on a par with the other Directors in the matter of their powers and responsibilities as stipulated in the Kerala Co-operative Societites Act and Rules and the bye-laws of the society concerned.  They are also responsible for safeguarding the interest of Government.  The following instructions are therefore issued for the guidance of the nominated Directors:-

1.       The nominated Directors should familiarise themselves with their duties and functions as well as the detailed working of the society so that they may function as effective Directors apart from the Board meetings.
2.       They must try to attend all the Board meetings without fail.  The bye-laws of societies generally provide that no member of the Board can absent himself for the meetings of the Board of Directors for more than three or four consecutive occasions without leave of the board.  It is advisable that the Government nominees avoid such a risk. 
3.       In the Board meetings, decisions are taken on the basis of majority votes.  In case of  equality of votes, the President/Chairman or other presiding member shall have a casting vote.  If any member disagrees with the majority decision it is necessary to record his dissenting views in the minutes of the Meeting.
4.       It is presumably open to a Director to give a separate report to the share holders explaining the position in case there happen to be any difference of opinion between himself and other Directors concerning any of the transactions covered by the accounts intended to be submitted to the share holders (general body).
5.       If he happens to be disqualified to hold the office as per provisions in the Act, Rules, bye-laws or any other law, it is the duty of a nominated director to disclose his disqualification to the society as well as to the authority which nominated him.
6.       It is the duty of Board of Directors as a whole to see that the society maintains the prescribed Registers and Books of Accounts properly.  This has to be ensured by insisting on monthly Receipts and Disbursement statements, quarterly Balance Sheet, periodical review of overdues etc.  They are responsible for complying with the various Labour Laws, Taxation Laws and other Laws impinging on the business performance of the Society.  Matters concerning investment, lending, borrowing, taking up new lines of business etc., will have to follow the lines laid down by the Act, rules and bye-laws.  The responsibility of  observing the requirements of the law, in all such matters is ultimately with the Board of Directors.  In the matter of recruitment of employees it is necessary for each member of the Board of Directors to examine that the staff strength is in accordance with the approved pattern, that the society is financially sound to meet the additional cost, that there is really need for the appointment and that it is done after proper publication and examining the qualification and the competency of the applicants.
7.       It is the duty of the Board of Directors to see that the statements and returns prescribed under Rule 33 are furnished to the Registrar within one month from the close of the Co-operative year and also to see that the annual accounts are got audited by the Auditor appointed by the Department.
8.       The Government nominees should ensure that the annual General Body meetings are held in time for the purpose of considering the matters specified under section 29.
9.       The mere fact that any particular function is delegated to any particular Director or employee does not mean that the Board of Directors can avoid the technical responsibility attaching to them as a unit in the eye of law.
10.     Some times certain powers of the committee are delegated to a smaller body styled as sub-committee or executive committee.  Even then technical responsibility remain with the Board for the Acts on omission of the Executive Committee.
11.     The nominees will take instructions from the Deputy Registrar/Registrar/Government on all important subjects on the agenda of the meeting and on all matters of policy and those affecting the financial interests of the Government, before they attend the meeting.
12.     The nominees should forward to the nominating authority within 3 days of the meeting a note in important decisions, if any, taken by the Board of Directors affecting Government interest or the general interest of the society as whole, so that they may be caused to be reviewed by the appropriate authorities.
13.     The nominees should go through the minutes of each meeting and if they find that there is any objectionable decision, they should record their objection in writing immediately and try to get it changed.
14.     The nominees have to function as the “eyes and ears” of the Government.  It is their duty to safeguard the interests of the Government in every respect.

Registrar expects strict compliance, on the part of all Government nominees, regarding the observance of the instructions issued hereby.

Sub:   School and College Co-operative Societies-Maintenance of Accounts-Giving guidance –Orders-Issued.
Ref:   Nil.

A large number of Schools and College Co-operatives, have recently been registered in each district for the purpose of expanding the distribution of student requirements of books and stationery at fair prices as part of the 20 points economic programme.  These societies cannot be expected to engage trained employees.  The teachers working as Honorary Secretaries are to maintain the accounts of the societies and conduct the business.  Most of the societies might have started functioning by this time. In order to ensure that the books of accounts are maintained properly, ever from the beginning, and that the affairs are managed properly, it is necessary to give proper guidance and to exercise strict supervision over the working of the societies, by the Departmental Officers, from the very beginning.

2.       All the Deputy Registrars are therefore, requested to direct the Assistant Registrars and the Inspectors under their control to visit every School and College Co-operative Society within their jurisdiction, as frequently as possible, and to give proper guidance and instructions to the office-bearers of the societies.  This item of work should be given priority and importance.
3.       The Deputy Registrars will send as report to this office after a fortnight stating whether all School/College Co-operative have been covered by one round of visits inspection by the officers under their control and whether necessary direction has been given to the office-bearers regarding the maintenance of accounts and conduct of business.

4.       The receipt of this circular be acknowledged by return.

Sub:   Issue of loans from Primary Land Mortgage Bank-for closed Loans-Calculation of interest-Instructions issued.

During the course of verification of certain loan files of a Co-operative Land Mortgage Bank it was found that the amounts remitted as part payment in foreclosed loans by loanees are kept under suspense and this amount was not given proportionate interest.  While calculating the interest levied on the loan amount the interest that would have been received by the parties for the amount remitted has not been calculated.  This will cause loss to the parties in due course.  All the Primary and Mortgage Banks are, therefore, directed to see that proportionate interest is calculated in the case of payments in foreclosed loans and keep a separate register in this regard.

CIRCULAR No.64/76

Sub:   Audit-Audit of Co-operative Societies-Records not available for a particular period-Procedure-Regarding.

Instances are not rare where the audit of  accounts of certain Co-operative Societies is held up as the concerned records for a particular period are incomplete/missing/destroyed and thereafter maintained properly.  Due to this, the audit of the concerned society  for subsequent years also remains in arrears.  Hence it is considered to evolve a definite procedure to recast the accounts of the society for the missing  period.  Accordingly the matter was discussed in the conference of the Deputy Registrars (Audit) held on 28-7-1976 and it was decided that in such cases, the society will write up the records with available data and publish a notification calling for claims and also stating that if the claims are not preferred within a specified time the audit will be finalised with the particulars available with the society and after a specified date the audit will be finalised. The Deputy Registrars (Audit) and Assistant Registrars (Audit) will bring this to the notice of all Auditors with instructions to adopt this procedure and finalise the audit of the concerned societies.

CIRCULAR No. 79/76

Sub:   Central Co-operative Banks-Supervision of Societies instructions-Issued.

The Reserve Bank of India while reviewing the Agricultural situation on Kerala has absorbed that the supervision of societies in the districts by Central Co-operative Banks is not satisfactory.  It was also observed that in the case of Trichur District Co-operative Bank as against 640 inspections of societies required to be conducted in 1974-75, only 24 inspections were carried out.  So also in Cannanore District though inspections/visit  were required to be conducted once in 6 months / 3 months, several societies were not inspected/visited continuously for long periods.  In Ernakulam District 166 inspections were in arrears for the year 1975-76 as on 30-6-1975.

It is seen that Central Co-operative Banks are not giving much attention to the work of inspection and supervision of societies as per the time schedule.  All Central Co-operative Banks are requested to chalk out necessary programme for inspection and supervision of societies and see that the same is carried out by the authorities concerned as per the programme chalked out.

CIRCULAR No. 85/76

Sub:   Issue of consumption credit to non-agriculturist members-security to be furnished-Regarding.
Ref:   This Office Circular No. 27/76 dated 11-5-1976

In the circular under reference instructions were issued in the matter of utilisation of deposits mobilised.  It has been prescribed therein that 10% of the deposits collected may be utilised for consumption purposes.  The nature of security to be furnished by the loanees has not been prescribed therein.

The Reserve Bank of India has specified in the guidelines for issue of  consumption credit, the nature of security to be obtained from non-agriculturist members. The Reserve Bank of India has prescribed that in the case of non-agriculturist members, such as for instance agricultural labourers, it may be advisable to issue consumption loans against personal security with at least two if not more members as sureties.  In fact, loans may, if possible, be advanced to a group of four or five individuals against their joint and several liability.  No other security should be insisted upon in the case of agricultural labourers and other weaker sections of the community.

All Primary Agricultural Credit societies are requested to see that the above instructions of the Reserve Bank of India is strictly adhered to while issuing consumption loan to non-agriculturist members.
