UPSC 2000: Which one of the following statements about a Money Bill is not correct?
(a)A Money Bill can be tabled in either House of Parliament
(b)The Speaker of Lok Sabha is the final authority to decide whether a Bill is a Money Bill or not
(c)The Rajya Sabha must return a Money Bill passed by Lok Sabha and send it for consideration within 14 days
(d)The President cannot return a Money Bill to Lok Sabha for reconsideration
Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (a) A Money Bill can be tabled in either House of Parliament
A Money Bill can be introduced only in the Lok Sabha (Article 109/110); it cannot be tabled in the Rajya Sabha, so statement (a) is incorrect. The Speaker’s certification is final, the Rajya Sabha must return the Bill within 14 days, and the President may either give or withhold assent but cannot return a Money Bill for reconsideration—hence (b), (c) and (d) are correct.
