Banking Service Commission (Repeal) Act, 2003 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 2003

.....the Commission was again reviewed in 1987 and it was decided that this may be deferred as the restructured system of BSRBs was working satisfactorily for the recruitment of clerical cadre and officers of banks. 3. Taking into consideration the decline in manpower requirements due to consolidation and mechanisation, a proposal was made in the Budget Speech for the year 2001-2002 to abolish the BSRBs to provide greater autonomy to bank managements in framing their own recruitment strategy. As a follow-up measure, all the BSRBs have since been closed. Banks have also been advised to frame their own recruitment strategy with the approval of their Boards to meet their future requirements. In the changed scenario, it is felt that keeping alive the Banking Service Commission Act, 1984 on the statute book without setting up the Commission is not justified. It is, therefore, proposed to repeal the Banking Service Commission Act, 1984. 4. The Bill seeks to achieve the above object. SECTION 01: SHORT TITLE This Act may be called the Banking Service Commission (Repeal) Act, 2003. SECTION 02: REPEAL OF ACT 44 OF 1984 The Banking Service Commission Act, 1984is hereby repealed......
