Reasons for the enactment
Under the Tamil Nadu State Housing Board Act, 1961 ( Tamil Nadu Act 17 of 1961 ) , the employees of the Tamil Nadu State Housing Board are not entitled to pensionary benefits which the State Government em- ployees are at present enjoying . The Government of Tamil Nadu have decided to amend section 19 of that Act so as to extend the pension scheme to such of those employees of the Tamil Nadu State Housing Board who were in the service of the Board on the 5th August , 1970, the date on which the State Housing Board passed a resolution to this effect, and who opt for the pension scheme. Persons appointed to the service of the Board on or after the 6th August , 1970 will however be eligible for pension . It has also been decided to empower the State Housing Board to make regulations for determining the conditions under which the officers and servants of the Board would be entitled to receive pension on retirement and the amount of such pension. Regulations which may be made by the Board for this purpose under section 19 , as proposed to be amended, may be given retrospective effect from a date not earlier than the 5th August, 1970.
2. The present measure seeks to achieve the above objects .
3. The Committee constituted under the proviso to sub - section ( 2) of section 3 of the Tamil Nadu State Legislature ( Delegation of Powers ) Act , 1976 (41 of 1976) has been consulted before the enactment of this measure as a President's Act .
