Disposal of old appeals required: supervisory officers must enforce chronological clearance and verify records by year-end. CsITs must enforce strict supervisory control over AACs, emphasising chronological disposal of old appeals and high-demand matters in monthly reviews, ensure effective annual administrative inspection of every AAC office, require AACs to dispose specified old appeals as fully as possible by the financial year-end, and verify compliance by examining appellate records; any appeal retained should have a valid reason and the instructions must be communicated to all AACs.
