Thank you, Mr. Chair. I have a motion that clause 22 of Bill 34 be amended by:
(a) striking out "settlement lands" in (1), and substituting a "a settlement area";
(b) deleting paragraphs 3(b) and substituting the following:
(b) if an area is within or overlaps with a settlement area or the asserted traditional territory of an Indigenous government or organization after the Minister engages with all applicable Indigenous governments or organizations; and
(c) striking out the "settlement lands" wherever it appears in paragraph 4(b) and substituting "a settlement area."
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Minister Abernethy. There is a motion on the floor. The motion is in order. To the motion. Minister Abernethy.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. The intent of this motion is to change the term "settlement lands" to "settlement areas" as we did in motion 1. This motion would ensure language in the bill is consistent with my previous motion to change the definition of "settlement lands" to refer "settlement areas." Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you. To the motion.
