law: Special Economic Zones Act, 2005 
  33. Special provision for
  
  transfer of officers or other employees to Authority 
  1.     
  
    It
  
  shall be lawful for the Central Government to transfer to each Authority, by
  
  order, and with effect from such date or dates, as may be specified in the
  
  order, any officer or other employee holding office as such (except officers or
  
  other employees on deputation) in the existing Special Economic Zone concerned
  
  :
  Provided that the scale of pay of the post to
  
  which such officer or other employee is transferred shall not be lower than the
  
  scale of pay of the post which he was holding immediately before such transfer
  
  and the other terms and conditions of service (including pension, leave,
  
  provident fund and medical benefits) of the post to which he is transferred
  
  shall not be less favourable than the terms and conditions of service in
  
  relation to the post held by him immediately before such transfer :
  Provided further that if, immediately before
  
  the date of his transfer, any such officer or other employee is officiating in
  
  a higher post under the Central Government either in a leave vacancy or in any
  
  vacancy of a specified duration, his pay and other allowances, if any, on
  
  transfer, shall be protected for the unexpired period of such vacancy and
  
  thereafter he shall be entitled to the scale of pay applicable to the post
  
  under the Central Government to which he would have reverted but for his
  
  transfer to the Authority.
  1.     
  
  
  2.     
  
    If
  
  any question arises as to whether the prescribed terms and conditions of
  
  service in respect of any matter, including remuneration, pension, leave,
  
  provident fund and medical benefits, are less favourable than those attached to
  
  the post held by an officer or other employee immediately before his transfer
  
  to the Authority, the decision of the Central Government in the matter shall be
  
  final.
