The Bill introduced by Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar seeks to amend section 3 of Goa Administrative Tribunal Act, 1965.
"The president and the additional president shall hold office until they attain the age of 60 years," the amendment said.
The Bill also provides that president or the additional president who has already attained the age of 60 years shall cease to hold office with effect from October 1, 2012.
Presenting the statement of objects and reasons, the Bill mentions that the post of the president and the additional president of the administrative tribunal is equivalent to the post of the district judge.
"In terms of rule 21 of the Goa Judicial Service including the District Judges shall retire by superannuation on attaining the age of 60 years, subject to clearance by special review committee as specified in the said rule," the Bill mentions.
