5. Some of the provisions contained in the State co-operative laws and which have been 'irritants' to non-official leadership of the cо-operative movement have not been inducted in the Bill. The Bill does not contain any provision for compulsory amendment of bve-laws or for compulsory amalgamation or division of societies. Nor does the proposed Bill contemplate any powers to Government nominees to veto the resolution of board of management of societies. The objective is that while the autonomy of the co-operative should be supported and respected, the administrative arrangements for inspection, monitoring and audit of these societies are strengthened to ensure that the societies function with responsibility to their constituents and the community. NEW DELHI; The 20 th March, 1984. RAO BIRENDRA SINGH. 5. Education, Training and Information.— Co-operatives provide education and training to their members, elected representatives and employees so that they can contribute effectively to the development of their Co-operatives. They also make the general public, particularly young people and leaders aware of the nature and benefits of co-operation.
