In a democratic setup, every Government is responsible to its Legislature. When any statute requires mere lying of any notification or Rules before the Legislature, its executive, viz. State Government, comes under the scrutiny of the concerned Legislature. Every function and every exercise of power by the State Government is under one or other Ministry, who in turn is accountable to the Legislature concerned. Where any document, Rule or notification requires placement before any House or when placed, the said House inherently acquires the jurisdiction over the same. Irrespective of the fact that such rules or notifications may not be under purview of its modification, such members may seek explanation from such Ministry of their inaction, arbitrariness etc. Laying before the House of Parliament are made in the three different ways. Laying of any Rule may be subjected to any negative resolution within a specified period or may be subjected to its confirmation. This is spoken as negative and positive resolution respectively. Third may be mere laying before the House. Legislature, Constitutional and Administrative Law Stanely De Smith and Rodney Brazier, 7th Edition; Administrative Law by HWR Wade and C.F.
