Trinamool’s Derek O’Brien makes a Point of Order on the GST Bill
Sir, I have a serious Point of Order. Sir, the GST Bill which is circulating today is not the Bill which was passed by the Lok Sabha.
The amendments which the Hon’ble Finance Minister has moved are based on that as passed in Lok Sabha. My limited point is, the Bill which we now have with us is actually the Bill which is the one as recommended by the Select Committee.
In Clause 19, Sir, everybody has had an informal agreement that the State will be compensated for five years. But the amendments which are being circulated by the Finance Minister does not contain that amendment. So it may be an oversight. If it is so, let it be known.
