Tamil Nadu Assembly on Saturday passed a bill to further amend the Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Act, 1978, to have another officer in the rank of Deputy Secretary to Government, Finance Department, as one of the directors of the board. Minister for Municipal Administration K.N. Nehru, who moved the resolution, said it was imperative to have one more officer due to the increased volume of the boards’ financial responsibilities, including high value tenders and multiple projects. “Accordingly, the government has decided to amend section 4 of the Tamil Nadu Act 28 of 1978,” he said.
