(1) The Central Government may, by
notification in the Official Gazette, make rules to carry out the provisions of
this Act.
(2) Without prejudice to the generality of the
foregoing power, such rules may provide for all or any of the following
matters, namely:
(a) the salary and
allowances and other terms and conditions of service of the Presiding Officer
and the employees of a Tribunal;
(b) the form and the
manner in which, and the time within which, an appeal shall be filed before a Tribunal
and the fees payable for filing such appeal;
(c) the manner of
certifying the copy of the certificate, to be forwarded to the Recovery Officer

(d) any other matter,
which has to be, or may be, prescribed by rules under this Act.
(3) Every rule made under this Act shall be
laid, as soon as may be after it is made, before each House of Parliament,
while it is in session, for a total 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 in making any modification in the rule or
both Houses agree 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.
