18. REPORT ON FOREIGN VISITS
18.1
Submission of a foreign deputation report on the conclusion of the mission is mandatory for every visit. It should be made in triplicate as per the format at Appendix XIII (vi) within a month of the return from abroad. Non- submission of the report in time will disqualify a scientist for further deputation, especially because such neglect does deprive CSIR of the timely benefit of the visits.
18.2
All the foreign deputation reports shall be critically reviewed both at the laboratory level and at the CSIR level. Information gathered, lessons learned, and recommendations made shall be speedily made of. It would be the responsibility of the laboratory to follow up, and implement the recommendation.
18.3
It is recommended that after the visit the scientist should give a presentation on the visit for the benefit of his/her colleagues.
