The Commissioner must decide the first appeal within:

According to Section 52 of the PERA Act 2024, the Commissioner of the concerned Division must decide the first appeal within 45 days from the date it is filed. This time frame ensures that appeals are resolved promptly and efficiently, maintaining the credibility and effectiveness of the enforcement system.

By setting a clear deadline, the PERA Act promotes accountability and procedural discipline. The Commissioner is required to review the appeal, consider the facts, examine evidence, and issue a decision within this period, preventing unnecessary delays or prolonged uncertainty for the parties involved.

This provision strengthens the appeal mechanism, ensuring timely justice and maintaining transparency and fairness in administrative and enforcement proceedings under the PERA Force Laws. A decision beyond the stipulated 45 days could undermine the efficiency and trust in the system, which is why adherence to this deadline is critical.
