The prominent inconsistencies identified in such notices and the rule position in this regardare as follows:- (1) Notices containing more than one issue which is prohibited under Rule 377A(iv). Members are requested to give notice on any one issue within the jurisdiction of the Union Government. If a notice contains more than one issue, the first issue appearing in the notice shall be taken up for examination and the subsequent issue(s) will not be taken into consideration. (2) Laying a matter in the House which is different from the approved text. In this regard, it is stated that Rule 377C(2) of Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in LokSabha states that "Only the text approved by the Speaker shall go on record." Hence, whenever a Member is permitted to lay a matter under Rule 377 in the House, only the approved text shall go on recordeven though the member has actually laid a different matter in the House. (3) Notproviding full text of the matter in the notice or merely mentioning on the body of the notice that the text shall be provided latercauses delays in examination/processing of such notices. In this regard, it is stated that Rule 377 requires a member to specify clearly and precisely the text of the matter to be raised. Therefore, whenever a notice is not accompanied by text of the matter intended to be raised or contains only a few words, the notice shall not be taken up for examination/processing. (4) Givingnotice on one subject and later requesting for change of the subject of the notice on the day on whichthe notice is listed in the House. 4 Members are informed that once the notice on a subject submitted under Rule 377 has been listed in the House on a particular day, the request to change the text of the notice shall not be entertained. (5) Submitting notice already raised/laid in the same session. Rule 377A(ii) states that in order that a notice may be admissible it shall inter alia satisfy the following condition:- "it shall not relate to a matter which has been discussed in the same session or which is substantially identical to the matter already raised by a member under this rule during the session.” Members are requested not to give notice on a subject already raised/laid by them in the House in the same session. If a notice is repeated during the same session, it shall not be permitted to be raised/laid and the notice shall get lapsed. Kind cooperation of Members is solicited.
