A draft notification under Section 31 must be laid before each House of Parliament for a total of thirty days. If both Houses agree to disapprove it, it is not issued; if both agree to modify it, it is issued in that form. Rule-making provisions cannot be disapplied.

  4. DThe notification needs the prior consent of every State Government

Explanation

Section 31(2) requires the draft notification to be laid before both Houses for thirty days. If both Houses agree in disapproving it, it is not issued; if both agree on a modification, it is issued only in that modified form. The power excludes provisions relating to making of rules or regulations, so the second option is wrong.
