It says the Commission may make regulations prescribing anything required by this Act to be prescribed and generally for the better carrying out of the purposes of this Act. Mainly, administration of pension, gratuity and other benefits of Members of Parliament and establishment of regulation and supervision of the management of a post-retirement medical scheme for Members. Remember we are moving the pension management for Members from Treasury to come under the preview of the Parliamentary Service Commission. So, this is just giving them power to prepare regulations to manage the same. Thank you, Deputy Chairlady."
