<h1>Central prescription of Information Commissioners' terms may standardise service conditions while preserving appointment provisions and transparency commitment.</h1> The amendment provides that the Central Government shall prescribe the term of office, salaries, allowances and other terms and conditions of service for the Chief Information Commissioner, Information Commissioners, State Chief Information Commissioners and State Information Commissioners, transferring specification of service conditions to Central rules while leaving the appointment provision of the Right to Information Act unchanged; Government asserts rule-making for State Information Commissions falls under Union residuary powers and maintains that autonomy is not reduced.
