In case the concerned respondent is not the competent authority to pass final orders in the matter, he shall refer the matter within two months with his detailed consideration and definite opinion in respect of each claim to the competent authority for passing final orders in the matter, who, after hearing anyone and after examining any records as he may deem necessary, shall pass final orders in the 3 matter within one month from the date of receipt of reference from the concerned respondent. 3.
