STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

During each of the financial years from 1974-75 to 1978-79 , based on the recommendations of the Sixth Finance Commission , a sum equivalent to twenty per cent of the annual net proceeds of Union duties of excise , excluding cesses levied under special Acts and earmarked for special pur- poses, was paid to the States and distributed among them in the percent- ages which that Commission had recommended . The Seventh Finance Commission , in its Report , 1978 , recommended that--

(i ) forty per cent of the net proceeds of Union duties of excise , other than on generation of electricity , levied and collected during each of the years 1979-80 to 1983-84, excluding cesses levied under special Acts and earmarked for special purposes, should be paid out of the Consolidated Fund of India to the States and distributed among them in the percentages recommended by the Commission ; and

(ii) during each of the years 1979-80 to 1983-84, the net proceeds of the Union duties of excise on generation of electricity should be paid out of the Consolidated Fund of India to each State in an amount equal to the collection in or attributable to that State .

The Union Duties of Excise ( Distribution ) Act , 1979 , to give effect to item ( i ) of the above recommendation of the Commission , has already been enacted by Parliament in May, 1979.

In making its recommendation at item ( ii ) above , the Seventh Finance Commission had also taken note of the State - wise estimates of revenues , net of cost of collection, from Union duty of excise on electricity in each of the five years from 1979-80 to 1983-84, based on the anticipated energy availability in each State as contained in the Tenth Annual Power Survey . The Bill which seeks to give effect to item ( ii ) of the above recommenda- tion, provides for the distribution of the net proceeds of the duty among the States in the same percentages , in the respective year, as the Com- mission had relied upon .

FINANCIAL MEMORANDUM

Clause 3 of the Bill provides for payment to the States of the net pro- ceeds of Union duties of excise levied and collected on generation of elec- tricity, other than in Union territories , during the financial year com- mencing on the 1st day of April , 1979 and each of the four succeeding financial years .

The Bill does not involve any non - recurring expenditure.

MEMORANDUM REGARDING DELEGATED LEGISLATION

Clause 5 of the Bill empowers the Central Government to make rules in respect of matters specified therein . They relate to the time at which and the manner in which any payments are to be made to the States , for the making of adjustments between one financial year and another and for any other incidental or ancillary matters . The matters in respect of which the rules may be made are of a routine and administrative character.

2. The delegation of legislative power is thus of a normal character.
