Money Bill and its introduction
A Money Bill is a type of bill that deals with financial matters such as taxation, borrowing of money, expenditure from the consolidated fund, etc. It is a special category of bill that has certain unique features. Let's discuss the given statements in detail.
1. A Money Bill cannot be introduced in the legislative council:
This statement is correct. As per the Constitution of India, a Money Bill can only be introduced in the Lok Sabha (lower house of Parliament) and not in the Rajya Sabha (upper house of Parliament) or Legislative Council (upper house of State legislature). The Rajya Sabha can only make recommendations on the Money Bill, which the Lok Sabha may or may not accept.
2. It can be introduced in the legislative assembly only and that too on the recommendation of the governor:
This statement is incorrect. A Money Bill can only be introduced in the Lok Sabha, not in the Legislative Assembly of a State. However, certain provisions of the Constitution give the governor the power to recommend the introduction of a Money Bill in the Legislative Assembly of a State. But even then, the bill would be considered to be introduced in the Assembly only if the governor has given his/her recommendation.
3. Every such bill is considered to be a government bill and can be introduced only by a minister:
This statement is correct. A Money Bill is always considered to be a government bill and can only be introduced in the Lok Sabha by a minister on behalf of the government. No private member is allowed to introduce a Money Bill.
