Section 29 of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 provides that the Central Government may, by notification, make rules for the qualifications, method of recruitment, procedure for appointment, term of office, resignation and removal of the President and members of the District Commission, so the term is provided for by "rules made by the Central Government by notification" (the 1986 Act had fixed the term in s.10(2) itself). The State Government's rule-making power under section 30 is limited to salaries, allowances and other conditions of service; the National Commission's regulations do not fix the term; and section 28 only provides for the establishment and composition of the District Commission, without fixing any term.
