5.10. The aspect of autonomy.-
Much of what we have said above should suffice to constitute a satisfactory answer, in so far as the aspect of autonomy is sought to be emphasized. Undoubtedly, there must be speedy disposal of business and willingness to accept responsibility on the part of the public sector. But it must be pointed out that this applies as much to organs of the Government in the narrow sense, as it applies to undertakings in the public sector. Governmental authorities also have to function with a sense of responsibility and with reasonable speed; and yet they are subject to fundamental rights.
