STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

Coal is the most important indigenous source of commercial energy in India. It is available in adequate quantities in India, though much of it is poor in quality and the reserves are unevenly distributed among diffe- rent regions of .the country. With the recent nationalisation of 214 cok- ing coal mines in Bengal^Bihar region, the development of metallurgical coal has been brought Under the control of the Government except in case of captive coal mines of the private steel plants. The non-coking coal mines, however, still predominantly continue to remain in the hands of the private sector, the public sector undertakings namely National, Coal Development Corporation, Bharat Coking Coal and Singareni Collieries Company contributing only l/3rd of the total national production. Most of the production of non-coking coal in private sector comes from Bengal- Bihar region where the collieries are concentrated. These collieries are small in size, financially weak and are worked on unscientific lines, the colliery owners' sole object being to earn quick profits without any regard to the conservation and safety of mines or to meet their obligations to the workers. This has resulted in the stagnation of production in many collieries and closure of many others.

It is envisaged that in order to meet, by 1978-79, anticipated demand of coal, large-scale efforts would be necessary to raise the production to which the private sector alone is expected to contribute an additional quantity of 19 million tonnes, requiring an investment of Rs. 100 crores during the next 6 years. It is felt that in the existing circumstances the private sector will not be able to fulfil these obligations. It is, therefore, proposed to nationalise the non-coking coal mines as early as passible. Since such nationalisation will take some time, the management of the non-coking coal mines pending nationalisation thereof, was taken over by the Central Government under the Coal Mines (Taking Over of Manage- ment) Ordinance, 1973. The Bill seeks to replace the said Ordinance.

MEMORANDUM REGARDING DELEGATED LEGISLATION

Clause 17 of the Bill empowers the Central Government to make rules to carry out the provisions of the Bill. Such rules may provide for matters, such as—

(a) the manner in which the coal mines shall be managed by the Custodian;

(b) the constitution of a ooard of management, by whatever name called, for advising the Custodian-General in the management of the coal mines;

(c) the form and manner in which the statement of accounts of the coal mines shall be maintained;

(d) any other matter in relation to which such rule is required to be, or may be, made.

2. The matters in respect of which such rules may be made are gene- rally matters of procedure and administrative details and it is not practi- cable to provide for them in the Bill itself. The delegation of the legis- lative power is, therefore, of a normal character.
