Ad hoc Committees

• Ad hoc Committees are those Committees which may be constituted by the House or by the Chairman or by the Presiding Officers of both Houses jointly to consider and report on specific matters.
• Such Committees become functus officio as soon as they complete their work. These Committees may be divided into two categories:
  I Select/Joint Committees on Bills constituted by the House(s) on specific motion to consider and report on Bills; and
  II Committees which are constituted from time to time to enquire into and report on specific subjects.

Standing Committees

• Standing Committees are permanent Committees whose members are either elected by the House or nominated by the Chairman every year or from time to time.
• These are:
  • Business Advisory Committee, General Purposes Committee, Committee on Government assurances, House Committee, Committee on Petitions, Committee on Subordinate Legislation, Committee on Papers Laid on the Table, Committee of Privileges, Committee on Rules, Committee on Ethics, Committee on Provision of Computers to Members of Rajya Sabha, Committee on Member of Parliament Local Area Development Scheme and the Department-related Standing Committees.

Types Of Bill

• The Bills initiated by Ministers are called Government Bills and those introduced by Members who are not Ministers, are known as Private Members’ Bills.
• Depending on their contents, Bills may further be classified broadly into
  I original Bills which embody new proposals,
  II amending Bills which seek to amend existing Acts,
  III consolidating Bills which seek to consolidate existing law on a particular subject,
  IV Expiring Laws (Continuance) Bills which, otherwise, would expire on a specified date,
  V repealing Bills,
  VI Bills to replace Ordinances,
  VII Money and financial Bills and
  VIII Constitution Amendment Bills

Passage Of a Bill

• A Bill while being considered has to undergo three stages in each House of Parliament.
• The first stage is the Introduction, which is done on a motion moved by either a Minister or a Member.
• During the second stage any of the following motions can be moved: that the Bill be taken into consideration; or that it be referred to a Select Committee of Rajya Sabha; or that it be referred to a Joint Committee of the two Houses; or that it be circulated for the purpose of eliciting opinion thereon.
• Thereafter, the Bill is taken up for the clause-by-clause consideration as introduced or as reported by the Select/Joint Committee.
• The third stage is confined to the discussion on the motion that the Bill be passed and the Bill is passed/rejected either by voting or voice vote (or returned to Lok Sabha, in the case of a Money Bill).
