My dear Secretary,
Rules 16-20 of the Rules of Business, 1973 deal with the procedure required to

(xii)
when a case, listed in rule 16(1) ibid, is required to be submitted to the
Cabinet, the Secretary concerned shall submit a self-contained, concise,
lucid and printed Summary (not exceeding two pages). The Summary
should contain background of the case and the relevant facts, the points
for decision and recommendations/approval of the Minister Incharge (a
specimen of the Summary is annexed). When a Ministry or a Division
has not been allocated to any Minister, that Ministry or the Division shall
be in the charge of the Chief Executive. In that case the Summary shall
be submitted with the approval of the Chief Executive in his capacity as
Minister Incharge of that Ministry of the Division;
in case of a proposed legislation requiring approval in principle of the
Cabinet, the Summary should clearly bring out the main issues to be
legislated upon (without annexing the draft legislation). In case the
proposed legislation happens to be an amendment to an existing
legislation, a comparative statement showing existing provisions and the
amended provisions should be attached to the Summary;
all cases involving negotiations with foreign countries are required to be
submitted, in the first instance, to the Cabinet for approval in principle
and actual negotiations should be initiated only after the proposal has
been approved by the Cabinet;
