Appellate tribunal appointments restructured to revise composition, qualifications, selection, tenure, acting members and removal procedures.

The Bill revises the Act by adding definitions for regulatory and member categories, substituting provisions on establishment and composition of the Appellate Tribunal, and altering qualification criteria. It prescribes statutory routes for appointing Presiding Officer, Judicial and Technical Members, establishes a Search-cum-Selection Committee for Technical Member selection, and protects selection proceedings from vacancy invalidation. It also redefines tenure and removal procedures, authorises acting Presiding Officer arrangements, and introduces rules for distribution of business and transfer of cases among Benches.
