COMMITTEE MOTION 26-16(6): DRAFT REGULATIONS TO STANDING COMMITTEE, CARRIED

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I move that this committee recommends that the government draft regulations for the operation of the Heritage Fund and refer them to the appropriate standing committee in a timely manner for review and feedback.

A motion is on the floor. To the motion. Mr. Bromley.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Once again I’m very pleased to support this motion and happy to see the committee bringing it forward. I think again it is an opportunity for the public to be heard on this.

I know that the committee is stepping out a little bit. This is not, again, a typical order of things, but it speaks to this being a different act that is dealing with the public purse and has the added responsibility of ensuring abundant opportunities for the public to be heard on their shepherding. Once again, I support this motion and I appreciate the committee bringing it forward. I will be supporting it.

Thank you, Mr. Bromley. To the motion.

Speaker: SOME HON. MEMBERS
