Money Bill

अर्थ विधेयक
Original Text

A Money Bill exclusively deals with taxation, borrowing, expenditure from the Consolidated Fund, or financial guarantees. The Speaker certifies whether a bill is a Money Bill. The National Assembly has limited power over Money Bills.

💡 Plain Language Explanation

A Money Bill is the purest form of financial legislation — ONLY about taxes, spending, or borrowing. The Speaker decides if a bill qualifies as a Money Bill (a powerful decision). The upper house (National Assembly) can suggest changes but CANNOT block it — if they don\'t return it within 15 days, the HoR proceeds without them.

🇳🇵 नेपाली व्याख्या

अर्थ विधेयक — कर, खर्च, ऋणसँग मात्र सम्बन्धित। सभामुखले प्रमाणित गर्छन्। राष्ट्रिय सभाले रोक्न सक्दैन।

✅ Strengths

HoR supremacy on money matters ensures elected representatives control public finances.

⚠️ Concerns

Speaker\'s certification power is unchallengeable — could theoretically classify non-money bills as Money Bills to bypass the upper house.
