Settlement Commission time limits extended, increasing disposal period for later applications while preserving earlier shorter timeframe. The amendment to sub section (4A) creates two categories: applications made on or after 1 June 2007 but before 1 June 2010 must be disposed within twelve months from the end of the month of filing; applications made on or after 1 June 2010 must be disposed within eighteen months from the end of the month of filing. The new clause taking effect from 1 June 2010 formalises these differing mandatory disposal periods for the Settlement Commission.
