    Feb. 12, 2013 Passed Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Monfwi, that Bill 1, Tlicho Statutes Amendment Act, be read for the second time. This bill amends provisions to the Tlicho Community Government Act to ensure consistency with similar provisions in other statutes governing municipalities. This bill also modifies the eligibility criteria for nominations as a candidate for chief or councillor of a community government and modifies the beginning and end dates of the term for council members. Further, this bill will enable the council of a community government to appoint an eligible person to fill a vacant position if the vacancy is not able to be filled through a by-election. Additionally, this bill repeals provisions in the Tlicho Community Government Act that have ceased to have affect, and amends several other statutes to add references to the Tlicho Community Government Act or Tlicho community governments and provisions, where there are references to other legislation governing municipalities or to types of municipal government. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
