CS Professional · Arbitration, Mediation and Conciliation · Mediation: An Introduction and its Process along with Rules

The Mediation Council of India proposes regulations on the manner of registering mediated settlement agreements and the fees for such registration. Under the Act, what is the correct procedure for making these regulations?

The Council may make such regulations by notification, but only with the Central Government's previous approval, and they must be consistent with the Act and the rules. Registration manner and fees for mediated settlement agreements are expressly listed as regulation matters, so no separate Act is needed.

  2. BThe Council may make them without any approval, by internal resolution
  3. CThe Central Government alone makes them as rules, and the Council has no role

Explanation

The Council may, with the previous approval of the Central Government, by notification, make regulations consistent with the Act and rules. Registration manner and registration fees are both listed matters. Acting without approval would not conform to the Act.
