(c) any other matter
which is required to be, or may be, prescribed.
(3) Every rule made by
the Central Government under this Act shall be laid, as soon as may be after it

period of thirty days which may be comprised in one session or in two or more
successive sessions, and if, before the expiry of the session immediately
following the session or the successive sessions aforesaid, both Houses agree

modification or annulment shall be without prejudice to the validity of
anything previously done under that rule.
