3. Further, based on the announcement of the Hon'ble Minister for Municipal Administration during the demand for grant of Municipal Administration and Water Supply Department for the year 2021-2022, on the ﬂ oor of the Legislative Assembly, six Municipalities namely, the Municipalities of Cuddalore, Kancheepuram, Sivakasi, Karur, Tambaram and Kumbakonam have been upgraded as City Municipal Corporations and 28 Town Panchayats were upgraded as Municipalities. The delimitation of wards and reservation process for the above newly constituted Corporations and Municipalities have to be undertaken.

6. In the circumstances stated above, as the term of oﬃ ce of the Special Oﬃ cers was due to expire on the 31st December 2021, the Government decided to amend the laws relating to the Town Panchayats, Municipalities and City Municipal Corporations, so as to extend the term of oﬃ ce of the Special Oﬃ cers for a further period of six months upto the 30th June 2022 or until the ﬁ rst meeting of the council is held after the next ordinary elections to the Town Panchayats, Municipalities and City Municipal Corporations, whichever is earlier.

7. As the Legislative Assembly of the State was not in session at that time, it became necessary to promulgate an Ordinance to give eﬀect to the above decision. Accordingly, the Tamil Nadu Municipal Laws (Third Amendment) Ordinance, 2021 (Tamil Nadu Ordinance 8 of 2021) was promulgated by the Hon'ble Governor on the 20th December 2021 and the same was published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette, Extraordinary, on the same date.

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

Article 43-B and Part IX-B were inserted in the Constitution by the Constitution (Ninety-seventh Amendment) Act, 2011 and came into force on the 15 day of February 2012. The Tamil Nadu Co-operative Societies Act, 1983 (Tamil Nadu Act 30 of 1983) was amended on the lines of the constitutional provisions as amended by the Constitution (Ninety-seventh Amendment) Act 2011 vide Tamil Nadu Act 4 of 2013. The Supreme Court in Union of India Vs. Rajendra N Shah and another [2021 (8) SCALE 332] has upheld the Gujarat High Court's decision in W.P.(PIL)No.166 of 2012, dated the 22nd April 2013, declaring the said Part IX-B as ultra vires of the Constitution of India, in so far as it concerns the Co-operative societies.

2. Several complaints have been received from the public and members of co-operative societies alleging ﬁ nancial irregularities and frauds in co-operative societies. A review of the functioning of co-operative societies has revealed large scale misappropriation of funds, issue of loans on fake jewels and issue of bogus loans of several crores of rupees, etc.

3. The Government, therefore, with a view to protect the interests of the Co-operative Societies, to streamline their administration, ensure proper governance and to increase the eﬃ cacy of the functioning of Co-operative Societies have decided to reduce the term of oﬃ ce of the Board of directors of the societies from ﬁ ve years to three years and to restore some of the provisions that existed in the said Tamil Nadu Co-operative Societies Act, 1983 prior to the amendments made in consonance with the provisions in Part IX-B of the Constitution by undertaking legislation.

Of the said 24 market committees, the Chairman and Vice Chairman were elected in 23 market committees (except Theni market committee) and they assumed charge in the said 23 market committees.

3. Therefore, the tenure of Special Oﬃ cers of 23 market committees (except Tiruchirappalli, Cuddalore and Theni market committees) was extended from 30-11-2020 to the date prior to the assumption of charges of the respective market committees by the members. Further, the tenure of the Special Oﬃ cers of Tiruchirappalli, Cuddalore and Theni market committees was extended from 30-11-2020 to 29-11-2021.

4. In the mean time, on the 23rd July 2021, the members nominated to the said 24 market committees were withdrawn and Special Oﬃ cers have been appointed for a period of one year to 23 market committees, except Tiruchirappalli, Cuddalore and Theni market committees.

5. Inasmuch as the extended tenure of the Special Oﬃ cers of the market committees of Tiruchirappalli, Cuddalore and Theni was due to expire on 29-11-2021 and as some more time was required to nominate members to the said market committees, there was a compelling necessity to extend the tenure of the Special Oﬃ cers of the said 3 market committees for a further period of one year beyond 29-11-2021 or till the reconstitution of the said market committees, whichever is earlier. The Government therefore, decided to amend the said Tamil Nadu Act 27 of 1989 suitably, for the above purpose.

6. To give eﬀect to the above decision the Tamil Nadu Agricultural Produce Marketing (Regulation) Second Amendment Ordinance, 2021 was promulgated by the Hon'ble Governor on the 27th November 2021 and the same was published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette Extraordinary, dated the 27th November 2021.

7. The Bill seeks to replace the said Ordinance.

STATEMENT UNDER RULE 168 OF THE TAMIL NADU LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY RULES

EXPLAINING THE CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH NECESSITATED THE PROMULGATION OF THE

TAMIL NADU AGRICULTURAL PRODUCE MARKETING (REGULATION) SECOND AMENDMENT

ORDINANCE, 2021.

Sub-section (1) of section 33 of the Tamil Nadu Agricultural Produce Marketing (Regulation) Act, 1987 (Tamil Nadu Act 27 of 1989) empowers the Government to appoint a Special Oﬃ cer to manage the aﬀairs of a market committee pending constitution of a new market committee for a period not exceeding three years in the aggregate. By virtue of the said provision, the tenure of Special Oﬃ cers who were appointed to manage the aﬀairs of the market committees in the State was extended beyond the said three years period, by amending the proviso to sub-section (1) of section 33 of the said Act, from time to time. Lastly, their tenure were extended up to ten years and six months by Tamil Nadu Act 31 of 2021. The said period was due to expire on the 29th November 2021.

2. Out of the 26 market committees, members were nominated to 24 market committees except Tiruchirappalli and Cuddalore market committees. Of the said 24 Market committees, the Chairman and Vice Chairman were elected in 23 market committees (except Theni market committee) and they assumed charge in the said 23 market committees.

5. Inasmuch as the extended tenure of the Special Oﬃ cers of the market committees of Tiruchirappalli, Cuddalore and Theni was due to expire on 29.11.2021 and as some more time was required to nominate members to the said market committees, there was a compelling necessity to extend the tenure of the Special Oﬃ cers of the said 3 market committees for a further period of one year beyond 29-11-2021 or till the reconstitution of the said market committees, whichever is earlier. The Government, therefore, decided to amend the said Tamil Nadu Act 27 of 1989 suitably, for the above purpose.

6. As the Legislative Assembly was not in session at that time, it became necessary to promulgate an Ordinance to give eﬀect to the above decision. Accordingly, the Tamil Nadu Agricultural Produce Marketing (Regulation) Second Amendment Ordinance, 2021 (Tamil Nadu Ordinance 6 of 2021) was promulgated by the Hon'ble Governor on the 27th November 2021 and the same was published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette, Extraordinary dated the 27th November 2021.

TAMIL NADU GOVERNMENT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY 101

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

Recruitment to posts in the State owned Public Sector Undertakings, State Corporations and Statutory Boards and Authorities under the control of the State Government through Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission would bring in uniformity in the process of selection of candidates and also enable the youth in the rural and remote parts of the State to apply for such posts. By vesting such recruitment with the Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission, professionalism in recruitment for the vacancies arising in the State owned Public Sector Undertakings, State Corporations and Statutory Boards and Authorities could be maintained and it would also relieve such organizations from the cumbersome works relating to recruitments allowing more time to concentrate on their core work.

2. The Government have, therefore, decided to entrust the Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission with additional function as respects recruitment to the services of the State owned Public Sector Undertakings, State Corporations and Statutory Boards and Authorities under the control of the State Government by undertaking legislation, as contemplated in Article 321 of the Constitution of India.

3. The Bill seeks to give eﬀect to the above decision.
