This law establishes the pay and benefits for the Speaker and Deputy Speaker of Tripura's Legislative Assembly. It sets their salaries and allowances at levels similar to high-ranking government ministers, including monthly stipends, travel expenses, and housing and car benefits. The legislation also mandates that these officials cannot hold other jobs or receive member salaries, ensuring they focus solely on their duties. Additionally, it provides free medical care for them and their families and allows for advances to buy cars. The Act repeals a previous version from 1964 to update these rules.
