Government today introduced in Lok Sabha the Lokpal and Lokayuktas Bill, aimed at setting up the body of Lokpal at the Centre and Lokayuktas at the level of the States. Government also introduced a Bill for amending the Constitution for conferment of Constitutional status on both bodies. Government also withdrew earlier Lokpal Bill, 2011 as it decided to introduce a new comprehensive Lokpal and Lokayuktas Bill, 2011 Bill after consideration of the suggestions made by the Parliamentary Committee which recommended significant changes in the scope and content of the earlier Bill.

The salient features of the proposed new Bills are as under:-

These autonomous and independent bodies, shall have powers of superintendence and direction for holding a preliminary inquiry, causing an investigation to be made and prosecution of offences in respect of complaints under any law for the prevention of corruption.

Ø The Bill provides a uniform vigilance and anti corruption road map for the nation, both at Centre and States.

Ø The Bill institutionalizes separation of investigation from prosecution and thereby removing conflict of interest as well as increasing the scope for professionalism and specialization.

 

Structure of the Institution:

 

Ø Lokpal will consist of a Chairperson and a maximum of eight Members of which fifty percent shall be judicial Members.

Ø Fifty per cent of members of Lokpal shall be from amongst SC, ST, OBCs, Minorities and Women.

§ Eminent jurist to be nominated by the President of India

Ø A Search Committee to assist Selection Committee in the process of selection. Fifty per cent of members of Search Committee shall be from amongst SC, ST, OBCs, Minorities and Women.

 

Jurisdiction:

 

Ø Prime Minister to be brought under the purview of the Lokpal with subject matter exclusions and specific process for handling complaints against the Prime Minister. Lokpal can not hold any inquiry against the Prime Minister if allegations relate to:

§ International relations;

§ External and internal security of the country;

§ Public Order;

§ Atomic energy

§ Space.

Any decision of Lokpal to initiate preliminary inquiry or investigation against the Prime Minister shall be taken only by the Full Bench with a majority of 3/4th. Such proceedings shall be held in camera.

Ø Lokpal’s jurisdiction to include all categories of public servants including Group ‘A’, ‘B’, ‘C’ & ‘D’ officers and employees of Government. On complaints referred to CVC by Lokpal, CVC will send its report of PE in respect of Group ‘A’ and ‘B’ officers back to Lokpal for further decision. With respect to Group ‘C’ and ‘D’ employees, CVC will proceed further in exercise of its own powers under the CVC Act subject to reporting and review by Lokpal.

Ø All entities receiving donations from foreign source in the context of the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) in excess of Rs. 10 lakhs per year are brought under the jurisdiction of Lokpal.

(b) Minimum punishment from 6 months to 2 years

Pension scheme to offer 8.6% assured return option

The government has secured the support of BJP on the bill to reform the pension sector by agreeing to the main opposition's demand that the scheme offer a minimum assured return and foreign investment be capped at 26%.

The new pension scheme (NPS) will offer an option for an assured return of 8.6% for investments in government bonds, while subscribers willing to take a higher degree of risk can look at other choices, where their contributions are invested in a mix of private and government placements.

An understanding over the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) Bill was arrived at at a meeting on Monday between finance minister Pranab Mukherjee and BJP leaders L K Advani, Arun Jaitley, Sushma Swaraj and Yashwant Sinha in Parliament. However, no consensus was possible with regard to the Companies Bill.

This is the second occasion on which the government and BJP have cooperated on the PFRDA Bill that seeks to give statutory cover to the NPS in force since 2003. The bill was introduced in Parliament in the face of Left resistance with BJP's backing and now its prospects of passage seem bright and it may be moved on Wednesday.

The terms of the deal are on the lines of the recommendations of the parliamentary finance standing committee that did not agree with the Centre's proposal that foreign investment in pension funds be raised to 49%, and also called for an assured rate of return, arguing that senior citizens should be given security on their investment.

The panel was also critical about the mediocre performance of the fund so far and the relatively low number of subscribers. While the government looked uncertain about the bill last week, Mukherjee's renewed bid for an agreement has borne fruit. BJP also seems prepared to be more accommodative towards Mukherjee, who the party feels is not needlessly combative towards the opposition.

Passage of the pension bill will be an important gain for the government after the reverses it has suffered over reform initiatives like FDI in multi-brand retail apart from the finance standing committee turning down proposed changes in the banking laws that would have given private investors voting rights equal to their investment.

On the Companies Bill, UPA conceded BJP's demand for allowing Limited Liability Partnership that would enable a group comprising only professionals from a category like chartered accountants or company secretaries to form their own company.

But the government has proposed so many changes to the bill - already scrutinized by a House panel - that it is now looking very different.
