BILL 15: AN ACT TO AMEND THE DEH CHO BRIDGE ACT

Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Inuvik Twin Lakes, that Bill 15, An Act to Amend the Deh Cho Bridge Act, be read for the second time.

Mr. Speaker, this bill amends the Deh Cho Bridge Act to:

remove references to the Deh Cho Bridge Fund;

extend to the registered owner of a vehicle the obligation to pay or arrange to pay a toll for the vehicle to be operated on the Deh Cho Bridge; and

authorize the making of regulations respecting the use of transponders and other devices for purposes of enforcing the collection of tolls.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Bill 15 has had second reading.

---Carried

The honourable Minister responsible for Transportation, Mr. Michael McLeod.
