What does Article 107 discuss regarding the introduction and passing of Bills in the Parliament?
Article 107 discusses the procedural rules regarding the introduction and passing of Bills in the Parliament. It states that a Bill may originate in either House of Parliament, subject to certain provisions related to Money Bills and other financial Bills (articles 109 and 117). The Bill needs to be agreed upon by both Houses without amendment or with agreed-upon amendments for it to be considered passed. Furthermore, a pending Bill in Parliament will not lapse due to the prorogation of the Houses, while a pending Bill in the Council of States will not lapse if the House of the People is dissolved. However, a Bill pending in the House of the People or passed by it but pending in the Council of States will lapse on a dissolution of the House of the People, except under certain circumstances specified in article 108.
