Bill 13 has had its second reading and is deferred to the Standing Committee on Social Development. Second reading of bills. Minister of Justice.

Thank you, Member for Frame Lake. To the principle of the bill.

Merci, Monsieur le President. I am concerned about the way this bill has been drafted, that it gives total discretion to my colleagues in Cabinet to decide to do away with daylight standard time. I think that this is not a decision that should be left with Cabinet alone, that it is something that should require some level of public engagement and certainly consultation with the rest of the House. This should not be a decision that rests solely with Cabinet, so I am opposed to this bill in principle. Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Minister. To the principle of the bill. Member for Frame Lake.

Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Inuvik Boot Lake, that Bill 13, An Act to Amend the Interpretation Act, be read for the second time. This bill amends the Interpretation Act to remove references to "mountain standard time" and "daylight savings time" and replace them with a reference to "standard time," which will be the applicable time all year. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Question has been called. All those in favour. All those opposed. Any abstentions. Motion is carried.
