Section 87
Powers To Suspend
(1) If the investigation of any charge mentioned in Section 84 is to be conducted in respect of any Employee, the Committee may suspend such an Employee until the conclusion of the investigation. Provided, however, that generally suspension shall not be made unless the following circumstance exists:
(a) Where there is a possibility that he or she can collect false evidence or conceal any evidence against him or her if he or she is not suspended and is allowed to
carry out the duties of his or her post, or
(b) Where there is a possibility of loss or damage to any act of the Legislature-Parliament Service if he or she is not suspended and is allowed to carry out the duties of his or her post.
(2) In suspending an Employee pursuant to sub-section (1), he or she shall not be suspended ordinarily for more than two months. The action against the Employee has to be completed within that period. If such action cannot be completed within that period because of the occurrence of any extra-ordinary circumstance and the period of suspension has to be extended, the period of suspension may be extended for up to one month with the prior approval of the Public Service Commission.
(3) Any Employee arrested and detained for a criminal charge involving moral turpitude shall be deemed to have ipso facto been suspended during the period of such detention.
(4) If any Employee is reinstated in his or her post or the period as referred to in sub-section (2) is completed or he or she is removed or dismissed from service, his or her suspension shall stand terminated.
