REPEAL OF STATUTES: CURRENT POSITION
INTRODUCTION
Repeal means to revoke, abrogate or cancel particularly a statute. Any statute may
repeal any Act in whole or in part, either expressly or impliedly by enacting matter contrary to
and inconsistent with the prior legislation. Thus a statute frequently states that certain prior
statutory provisions are thereby repealed. The courts will treat matter as repealed by implication
only if the earlier and later statutory provisions are clearly inconsistent. When a repealing
provision is itself repealed, this does not revive any provision previously repealed by it, unless
intent to revive is apparent, but it may allow common law principles again to apply.
Under General Clauses Act, 1897, Section 6 "Repeal" connotes abrogation or obliteration
of one statute by another, from the statute book as completely "as if it had never been passed."
When an Act is repealed "it must be considered (except as to transactions past and closed) as if
it had never existed."
Just as the Legislature has the power to enact laws, similarly it has the power to repeal
laws. The efficacy of the Legislature depends upon the possession of the power to repeal the
existing law, for without this attribute the power to enact would be a nullity, and the body of the
law a series of contradictory enactments. Consequently the legislative power to repeal prior laws
is not inhibited by any constitutional prohibitions, but exists as a necessary part and increment
of the legislative power and function. No statute can make itself secure against repeal. There is
nothing to prevent any Parliament from enacting that a particular statute shall never in any
circumstances be altered or abrogated. It is within the power of any Parliament to repeal any of
the Acts passed by its predecessors and that it is not within the power of any Parliament to
prevent the repeal of any of its own Acts, or to bind its successors.
Repealing and amending Acts have no legislative effect, but are designed for editorial
revision, being intended only to excise dead matter from the statute book and to reduce its
volume .Mostly, they expurgate amending Acts, because having imparted the amendments to
the main Acts, those Acts have served their purpose and have no further reasons for their
existence. At times, inconsistencies are also removed by repealing and amending Acts. The
-2only object of such Acts, which in England are called Statute Law Revision Acts, is legislative
spring-cleaning and they are not intended to make any change in the law.
A statute is either perpetual or temporary. It is perpetual when no time is fixed for its
duration, and such a statute remains in force until its repeal which may be express or implied. A
perpetual statute is not perpetual in the sense that it cannot be repealed; it is perpetual in the
sense that it is not abrogated by efflux of time or by non-user. A statute is temporary when its
duration is only for a specified time, and such a statute expires on the expiry of the specified
time unless it is repealed earlier. Simply because the purpose of a statute, as mentioned in its
preamble, is temporary, the statute cannot be regarded as temporary when no fixed period is
specified for its duration. The Finance Acts which are annual Acts are not temporary Acts and
they often contain provisions of a general character which are of a permanent operation. A
cessation of transitional legislative power has also no effect on the continuance of a perpetual
Act enacted during the continuance of that power. The duration of a temporary statute may be
extended by a fresh statute or by exercise of a power conferred under the original statute. When
the life of a temporary Act is merely extended, it cannot be said that a new law has been
enacted; but if the extension is accompanied by any substantial amendment, it would not be a
case of mere extension. It appears that after a temporary statute expires, it cannot be made
effective by merely amending the same. The only apt manner of reviving the expired statute is
by re-enacting a statute in similar terms or by enacting a statute expressly saying that the
expired Act is herewith revived1.
NEED FOR REPEAL
A debate on the need to repeal obsolete laws has been set in motion in India with the
government taking various steps to look into the matter. Even our erstwhile coloniser, Great
Britain, initiated the process of repealing 38 such laws in the year 2013, which were passed
between the years 1849 and 1942, pertaining to the construction and maintenance of the Indian
Railways. Meanwhile, our own post-independence efforts to weed out obsolete laws, through a
process of spring cleaning, remain pending2.

The Hindu, New Delhi, dated 15.9.2014
-3LAW COMMISSION OF INDIA
In the past the Law Commission had submitted various reports identifying number of laws
as obsolete which demanded repeal. Commission‟s 18th and 81st Reports recommended the
repeal of particular colonial law. The 18th Report sought to repeal of „Converts Marriage
Dissolution Act‟ and the 81st Report recommended the repeal of „Hindu Widows Remarriage
Act‟. The 96th Report recommended repeal of the substantial number of obsolete laws. Once
again the Commission in its 148th Report suggested repeal of a number of laws. Following the
same path in its 159th Report submitted in the year 1998, the Commission recommended a
substantial number of laws for repeal. Many of the laws identified as obsolete in these reports
have been repealed. The Government also in 1998 appointed the P.C. Jain Commission which
gave its report in September 1998 identifying a large body of laws for the purpose of repeal.
During the course of its study the Commission found that a large number of Appropriation
Acts passed during past several years have lost their meaning but these are still shown on
statue-books. The Appropriation Acts are intended to operate for a limited period of timeauthorising expenditures for the duration of one financial year, or less, for example in the case
of Vote on Account Bills. Though these Acts are not usually included in any list of Central Acts,
either by the Ministry of Law and Justice, or elsewhere, these laws still technically remain on the
books.
It may be relevant to note that mechanisms exist in many other countries to
systematically remove Appropriation Acts that have served their purpose. For example, in the
United Kingdom, all Appropriation Acts usually contain a repealing provision which specifically
repeals older Appropriation Acts. In Australia the route followed is that of automatic repeal for
Appropriation Acts. Section 89 of Australian Legislation Act of 2001 mandates that certain Acts
are automatically repealed and this includes “Appropriation Acts, on the last day of the Financial
Year for which it makes appropriation” and thus in other words provisions in the nature of a
sunset clause are read into every Appropriation Act by virtue of the Legislation of 2001.
In India, however, no such mechanism is in place and Appropriation Acts continue to sit
on statute-books. The Law Commission recommended that a practice like the one of the United
Kingdom to include a repeal clause in the Appropriation Act every year would serve a useful
purpose, without necessitating major amendments or introduction of new laws.
-4The 20th Law Commission of India had undertaken a study “The Legal Enactments :
Simplification and Streamlining” and the Committee till date had submitted four (interim)
Reports titled "Obsolete Laws: Warranting Immediate Repeal" wherein it has identified,
analyzed and duly recommended a number of archaic statutes as well as certain preconstitution and pre-independence enactments for either complete or partial repeal as per
contemporary requirements3.
Ramanujam Committee
Prime Minister on August 2014 had approved the constitution of a Committee to carry out
a review to identify obsolete laws and to examine all Acts recommended to be repealed by the
Committee on
Review of Administrative Laws, which had been appointed by the Union
Government of the then Prime Minister, Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee, in 1998. The Prime Minister
has expressed concern that out of the 1382 Acts recommended for repeal by that Committee,
only 415 have been repealed so far. He has called for a focused and result-oriented exercise to
systematically weed out archaic laws and rules4.
Accordingly, a Committee was constituted on 1 September, 2014 consisting of Shri R.
Ramanujam, Secretary, Prime Minister's Office as Chairperson and Shri V.K. Bhasin, Former
Secretary, Legislative Department, Ministry of Law and Justice as Member with the following
Terms of Reference, namely:"(i) to further process the act of repealing the Central Acts which are not relevant or no longer
needed as on date and can be repealed whole or in part immediately based on recommendation
of various Reports, Departmental/Ministry, the Law Commission and other Commissions and
Committees;
(ii) to identify the Acts amending the Central Acts which can be wholly or partially repealed in
view of section 6A of the General Clauses Act, 1897;
(iii) to identify the Central Acts which would require revisiting in the present socioeconomic
context through appropriate amendments thereto or re-enactment thereof ".

In addition to above, the Committee identified 55 Central Acts for repeal and reenactment
thereof.
The Committee has identified 18 Central Acts suggested for repeal but recommended by
the Committee for retention thereof at the present5.
The Repealing and Amending Act
“The enactment of Repealing and Amending Act since 1950 is one of the periodical
measures undertaken by the Legislative Department of the Ministry of Law whereby enactments
which have ceased to be in force or have become obsolete or the retention whereof as separate
and independent Act is unnecessary, then, such enactments are repealed, or as the case may
be, to remove any formal defects in any enactment which comes to notice during its
administration.
So far, ten Repealing and Amending Acts have been passed through which 1367
enactments have been repealed. The principal object of such Acts is to “exercise dead matter,
prune off superfluities and reject clearly inconsistent enactments”. The last such enactment was
5

A perusal of the above tabular chart suggests that while the first repealing and amending
exercise was carried out in the year 1950. The next exercise was initiated after a gap of 2 years
i.e. 1952, the third such exercise was initiated after a gap of 1 year, Fourth after 4 years , Fifth
after 3 years, sixth after 4 years, seventh after 10 years, Eighth after 4 years, Ninth after 10
years and the last such exercise was initiated after 13 long years6.
Repeal of Statute: Current Position
The Central Government's resolve to bring reform in the legal system of the country, to
make it more accessible to the common man and to imbibe the principles of rule of law, has,
6
Rajya Sabha, Report of the Select Committee on The Repealing and Amending Bill, 2014, February 2015, pp. 8-9
-8inter-alia, began with the review of enactments which are obsolete, redundant and unnecessary.
In fulfilment of this objective, the Central Government has undertaken a comprehensive review
of laws and the legal system with a view to remove incoherent and redundant laws.
As a step forward towards this direction, the Central Government has undertaken the
following initiatives towards achieving its objective to repeal obsolete and redundant laws. The
following Acts, namely, (i) the Repealing and Amending Act, 2015 (17 of 2015) to repeal 35
Acts; (ii) the Repealing and Amending (Second) Act, 2015 (19 of 2015) to repeal 90 Acts have
been enacted
(see Annexure). The Appropriation Acts (Repeal) Bill, 2015 (to repeal 758
Appropriation Acts) and the Repealing and Amending (Fourth) BIll, 2015 (to repeal 295 obsolete
and redundant laws) as passed by the House of the People on 11 May, 2015 and 6 August
2015 respectively, are pending in the Council of States. On remaining Acts, action for repeal is
at different stages. On being enacted, it would reduce obsolete laws and bring in clarity to those
for whose benefit the laws are enacted7.
Conclusion
The Government is moving purposefully to secure a declared objective of the Prime
Minister: the identification and repeal of archaic laws that bloat up the statute books,
occasionally conflict with other laws and may hinder governance and growth.
However, sporadic commissions and initiatives would serve the purpose erratically.
Lawmaking is the routine business of Government, and review for possible repeal should also
happen routinely. If a review system were in place, our statute books would be slimmer8.
