Definition of governmental authority broadened to include statute set or government established bodies with predominant government participation for municipal functions. The substituted clause defines 'governmental authority' to mean an authority, board, or other body either set up by an Act of Parliament or a State legislature, or established by Government, with predominant government participation by way of equity or control, constituted to carry out any function entrusted to a municipality under the constitutional provision concerning municipal powers. The amendment tightens recognition to bodies meeting the statute-establishment or government-formation criterion plus dominant government ownership or control.
