Committee Motion 24-15(6): Openness And Promotion Of ATIPP Legislation, Carried

Mahsi, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I move that this committee recommends that the Premier, Ministers and deputy ministers take a leadership role in changing the corporate culture as far as the interpretation and application of the ATIPP Act is concerned to create a culture of openness from top to bottom. Furthermore, this committee recommends that a new section reporting on ATIPP activities is included in the yearly business plan for each department. This new reporting framework should include information on requests, complaints and how they were resolved, related training and any other initiatives or activities that take place to promote the ATIPP legislation. Mahsi, Mr. Chair.

Mahsi, Mr. Lafferty. The motion is in order. To the motion.
