Coal Mines (Nationalisation) Act, 1973 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1973

.....the above two Acts. Some of the important amendments which the Ordinance proposed were as follows:- (a) the definition of "mine'' inthe Coking Coal Actandthe Coal Mines Actincluded all coal and coke belonging to the owner of the mine whether in stock or in transit and all coal under production in a mine on a day immediately prior to the date on which the coal mines were nationalised. Accordingly, the amounts specified in the Schedules to the two Acts included the value of the coke and coal in stock lying at the mines at the time of nationalisation.

This would have involved double payment of the amount in as much as the value of the coke and coal stocks had already been included in the amounts mentioned in the Schedules to the Acts against each coal mine. In order to make the intention clear sections 10and22 of.....
