All but four record an amendment, naming the amending instrument and its date or referring back with 'ibid.' to the instrument named before. Fifty give the earlier text of the provision changed, and seventy-two more quote the words replaced or omitted.

Five footnotes in each Act record them—in section 10, on the qualification and remuneration of auditors, and in section 10B, on unpaid or unclaimed money, shares and bond dues and the Investor Education and Protection Fund—and each gives the words or the text it replaced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e[\u003cstrong\u003eThree Schemes\u003c\/strong\u003e] The Nationalised Banks (Management and Miscellaneous Provisions) Schemes of 1970 and 1980 follow the two Acts, each headed with its notification number and date. Their footnotes take them from the Amendment Schemes of 1972 and 1985 to those of 2022, which omitted paragraphs 7A to 7C on the Banks Board Bureau, printed in the footnotes as they stood, and substituted paragraph 8(1), on the term of a whole-time director.

Under the 1970 Act, four numbered notes, 2.1 to 2.4, take the definitions of 'appointed day', 'banking company', 'corresponding new bank' and 'existing bank'; under the 1980 Act, note 2.1 takes 'existing bank'. The five notes run to eight sub-heads and fourteen short points, among them the threshold and the date of the return that decide an 'existing bank' under each Act\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e[\u003cstrong\u003eCase Laws\u003c\/strong\u003e] Nine rulings are summarised under four sections: two under section 14 of the 1970 Act, on whether officers and chairmen of nationalised banks are public servants; five under section 19 of that Act and one under section 19 of the 1980 Act, on service regulations, among them promotion, suspension, discipline and transfer; and one under section 9 of the 1980 Act, on a workman director. Each entry gives a bold issue head, a summary and the citation; the rulings, reported in the Cri. L.J. and the Lab.

The 1970 Scheme has three Schedules and the 1980 Scheme two: procedures for verifying the membership of workmen's unions, with a certificate and a notice as Annexures I and II, and of officers' associations; and, in the 1970 Scheme, the six areas for Regional Consultative Committees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e[\u003cstrong\u003eResearch Tools\u003c\/strong\u003e] A six-page Contents list sets out both Acts by Chapter and section and the three Schemes by Chapter and paragraph, with page references. Each Act is followed by its own Subject Index—twenty-nine main heads and seventeen sub-entries for the 1970 Act, twenty-five and fourteen for the 1980 Act—which reaches every section other than the repealed section 20 of the 1980 Act, section 2 through its defined terms.
