| Object & Reasons6 |
| Statement of Objects and Reasons - Haryana Act 7 of 2005. - The Haryana Public Service Commission (Additional Functions) Amendment Act, 2004 - Haryana Act No. 8 of 2004 provides that the Haryana Public Service Commission shall select suitable candidates for such posts as carry an initial pay of Rs. 8,000/- or above per month under a Local Authority or under a Body Corporate as the State Government may by Notification in the official Gazette direct. The Haryana Electricity Regulatory Commission is covered under a Central Act namely, Electricity Act, 2003 and any selection of candidates for appointment under it cannot be done by Haryana Public Service Commission. The request of the Haryana Regulatory Commission has been considered and it is felt that with the Amendment Act of 2004 a provision was made which tends towards the centralization of powers at one source which is not desirable. The Government has considered the matter and it has been decided that the centralization of powers be done away with and the Boards/Corporations under the Government should be free to have their own system of selection of candidates for recruitment. Therefore, it is proposed that the Haryana Act No. 8/2004 i.e. the Haryana Public Service Commission (Additional Functions) Amendment Act, 2004 be amended accordingly. With a view to achieve this objective, an Ordinance was issued on 16th May, 2005 as the Legislative Assembly of the State was not in Session.
The Bill seeks to replace the said Ordinance. Haryana Government Gazette (Extra) dated June 9, 2005, page 2613. |
