BILL 8: AN ACT TO AMEND THE LOCAL AUTHORITIES ELECTIONS ACT

Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Yellowknife South, that Bill 8, An Act to Amend the Local Authorities Elections Act, be read for the second time.

Mr. Speaker, this bill amends the Local Authorities Elections Act to implement reforms jointly developed by the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs and the Northwest Territories Association of Communities, and to make a number of minor changes to conform with prevailing drafting practices. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Bill 8 has had second reading and is referred to a standing committee.

---Carried

The honourable Minister of Environment and Natural Resources, Mr. Miltenberger.
