Power to make rules

(1) The Government may, by notification in the Gazette, make rules for the purpose of carrying into effect the provisions of this Act.

1. (2) In particular and without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing power, such rules may provide for-
   • (a) the form in which and the authority to which application for pension shall be made;
   • (b) the certificates to be furnished along with an application for pension;
   • (c) any other matter which has to be, or may be, prescribed.
2. (3) Every rule made under this Act shall be laid, as soon as may be after it is made, before the Legislative Assembly, while it is in session, for a total period of fourteen days which may be comprised in one session or in two successive sessions, and if, before the expiry of the session in which it is so laid or the session immediately following, the Legislative Assembly makes any modification in the rule or decides that the rule should not be made, the rule shall thereafter have effect only in such modified form or be of no effect, as the case may be; so, however, that any such modification or annulment shall be without prejudice to the validity of anything previously done under that rule.
