the officer, upon ceasing to be employed in that Department, becomes employed in another Department—
         (i) the Paying Officer shall also inform the judgment creditor of the name of the Department in which the officer has become employed, of the fact that deductions will be made, in respect of the judgment debt, by the Paying Officer of that Department, and of the address of that Paying Officer in order that the
