STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS.

Section 3E of the Maharashtra Slum Areas (Improvement, Clearance and Redevelopment) Act, 1971 (Mah. XXVIII of 1971) provides that the tenements allotted to the persons under the Slum Rehabilitation Scheme shall not be transferred by the allottee thereof for a period of first ten years commencing from the date of allotment of the tenement and after the expiry of the said period of ten years, the allottee may, with the permission of the Slum Rehabilitation Authority, transfer such tenement in accordance with the prescribed procedure.

2. The Government has received many representations that the said period of restriction on transfer of such tenements by allottees is too long. Also the problem of illegal transfer of such tenement has also increased.  Therefore, the Government considers it expedient to reduce the said period of ten years to five years. For that purpose, section 3E of the said Act is proposed to be amended, suitably.

3. The Bill is intended to achieve the above objectives.
