Debates of September 20, 2017 (day 77)
Mr. Chair, Committee would like to consider Committee Report 11-18(2). Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Beaulieu. Does committee agree?
Agreed.
Thank you, committee. We will begin consideration of Committee Report 11-18(2), Standing Committee on Rules and Procedures Report on the Review of Standing Committee Public Engagement and Transparency. That's a very wordy name. I will turn to Mr. O'Reilly, the chair of the committee for comments. Mr. O'Reilly.
Thanks, Mr. Chair. I'll keep this very brief. I just wish to thank my colleagues who serve on the committee; the MLA for Yellowknife Centre, MLA for Tu Nedhe-Wiilideh, MLA for Thebacha, and MLA for Nahendeh. There are no recommendations in the report. A number of things, though, that we've already started to carry out, including improving our committee web pages here at the Assembly. We conduct much more of our business as standing committees in public, and I think it's fair to say that we'll continue to work to improve our public engagement and transparency for the remainder of this Assembly. With that, Mr. Chair, I believe that probably concludes our consideration of this report. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. O'Reilly. Are there any general comments from committee? Seeing none. Does committee agree that we have concluded consideration of Committee Report 11-18(2)?
Agreed.
Thank you, committee. Now what is the wish of committee? Mr. Beaulieu.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I move that we rise and report progress. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Beaulieu. There is a motion on the floor to report progress. The motion is in order and non-debatable. All those in favour? All those opposed?
---Carried
I will now rise and report progress.
