Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Yellowknife South, that Bill 6, an Act to Amend the Commercial Tenancies Act, be read for the second time.
This bill would amend the Commercial Tenancies Act to ensure that a judge of the Supreme Court is available to conduct a hearing on the day that a tenant is summoned to show cause why that tenant should not be ordered to deliver of possession of leased premises for non-payment of rent, and to ensure that the tenant is served with a summons at least three days prior to the date of the hearing.
