Under the Act, Alok must wait until a permanent post becomes available before the government can consider him for confirmation, even though his probation is successfully completed (Section 23).

2Sunita was a confirmed officer in the erstwhile Orissa Veterinary Service, Class II (Senior Branch) before the 1987 rules came into force.
