The Governor of Tamil Nadu, through the Government of Tamil Nadu Energy (B2) Department, issued Government Order Ms. No. 23, dated 8 March 2013, amending the Tamil Nadu Electricity (Reorganization and Reforms) Transfer Scheme, 2010. The amendment replaces a period of two years in clause 9(1) with two years and six months, with effect from 1 November 2012.
What the notification changes
Government Order Ms. No. 23, Energy (B2), dated 8 March 2013, makes one specific amendment to the Tamil Nadu Electricity (Reorganization and Reforms) Transfer Scheme, 2010. In clause 9, sub-clause (1), the words providing for a period of two years are replaced by words providing for a period of two years and six months.
The notification does not reproduce clause 9 in full or explain what activity, arrangement or responsibility is covered by that period. Its direct legal change is therefore limited to extending the stated duration by six months.
Authority and effective date
The Governor of Tamil Nadu made the amendment using the powers conferred by sections 131 and 133 of the Electricity Act, 2003, read with clauses 9 and 12 of the Tamil Nadu Electricity (Reorganization and Reforms) Transfer Scheme, 2010.
