I' about 16th February, and apprehension in the minds of people of that area, 4 - including his landlady Smt. Minguelina Cardozo, who has complained to the Margao Dy. S. P. alleging that he has been murdered, by letter dated 4th March, 1980 and failure on the part of police in tracing the whereabout of the said truck driver till this date." The Chief Minister made a statement thereon. 3) The Chief Minister made a statement in respect of the calling attention notice raised by Shri Herculano Dourado regarding discontinuance of stage buses from Cortalim-Margao & Cortalim-Vasco da Gama to which his attention was called on 14-4-980. 4' "As IV. Ruling by the Speaker. Hon'ble Speaker gave the following ruling: - promised on Friday, the 18th April, 1980, I rise to giv ruling on the point of order raised by Hon. Member Shri Herculano Dourad 1 on notices of Bills tabled by him proposing to enhance the salaries of Dy. Speaker, Ministers and Members of this Assembly; Notices of Bills received are examined by our Department with a view to ensure that the Bill conforms to the various provisions of the Govt. of Union territories Act and Rules. When the Bill satisfies all the requirements as men- tioned in the Book on Practice and Procedure of Parliament by Kaul & Shak- dher, a Bill number is indicated at the top of the Bill and the cover and docket pages are prepared and attached to the Bill. One of the points for examination before introduction is whether recommendation of the Administrator is required either for introduction or consideration of the Bill under any of the provisions of the Govt. of Union territories Act. A3 pointed by the Member the amendment to the Salaries and Allowances of Members of the Legislative Assembly Act, tabled by him will attract only section 23(3) of the Govt. of Union Territories Act as the Bill only involves expenditure from the consolidated fund. But as far as the other two Bills are concerned the position is diferent. As per section 3 of the Goa, Daman and Diu Salaries and Allowances of the Speaker and Dy. Speaker Act, 1964 the Speaker shall be paid such salary as are provided for a Minister under the Goa, Daman and Diu Salaries and Allowances of Ministers Act, 1964, Hence any enhancement to the salary of the Minister will automatically amount to increase in salary of Speaker. Salary of Speaker and Dy. Speaker are charged on the consolidated fund and as such amendments proposing to increase the salary of Speaker and- the Dy. Speaker will amount to increase in the expenditure charged on the consolidated fund. The amendment to the Goa, Daman and Diu Salaries and Allowances of Ministers which also amounts to increase of salary of Speaker and the amendment to the Goa, Daman and Diu Salaries and Allowances of Speaker and Dy. Speaker Act proposing increase in salary of Dy. Speaker will thus attract section 23(l)(d) of the Govt. of Union Territories Act and the recommendation of the Administrator is therefore required for their introduction in the Legislative Assembly. In view of this position the amendment to the Goa, Daman and Diu Salaries and Allowances of Ministers Act and the amendment to the Goa, Daman and Diu Salaries and Allowances of the Speaker and Dy. Speaker Act cannot be introduced in the Assembly without the recommendation of the Administrator. Coming to the amendment to the Salaries and
Allowances of Members of the Legislative Assembly Act, though such a Bi prdposing to provide pension to pe Hon. Members was allowed to be introduce during first session, 1979 without obtaining the recommendation of the Adminis- a, , trator, I differ on the point mainly because as quoted by me from Kaul & Shakdher a Bill requiring recommendation of the Administrator for consideration in the Assembly can be given a Bill number and sent for printing with cover and docket page only when the requirement of recommendation is satisfied. It is obvious that we cannot introduce a bill without having registered and given a Bill No. Even if a Bill is introduced it will not serve any purpose if it is stalled at the consideration stage for want of recommendation of the Administrator. . With this view in mind and also in order to save the precious time of the House the Goa, Daman and Diu Salaries and Allowances of Members of the Legislative Assembly (Amendment) Bill, 1980 tabled by Shri Herculano Dourado was not included in the list of Business for introduction. As far as the other two bills are concerned as already pointed out by me they will attract section 23(1) of the Govt. of Union Territories Act, and thus cannot be introduuced without the previous recommendation of the Administrator. All the 3 Bills have been referred by me to the Administrator and I have not yet received them. / V. Discussion and voting on Demands fordGrants for the year 1980-81.
