COMMITTEE MOTION 108-17(5): ACCESS TO PRIVACY BY DESIGN, CARRIED
Mr. Chair, I move that this committee recommends that the Government of the Northwest Territories work with the Information and Privacy Commissioner to incorporate access by design considerations into the design phase of program, policy and legislation development, giving particular thought to how these considerations can be built into the legislative proposal process. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Moses. The motion is on the floor. The motion has been distributed. The motion is in order. To the motion. Mr. Moses.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I think you’ve heard from my colleagues in support of the office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner to have input into how we develop our legislation here within the Government of the Northwest Territories and not to have her give input during the consultation phase after second reading or also with our policies as we develop them. One case in particular was the online registration. She made reference to how that was put forth without any information on online registration for vehicles without any input from her. With all the work and information that’s being shared over the line now, I think it’s almost imperative that we get her feedback as we move forward in creating legislation as it pertains to the government. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Moses. To the motion.
