Thank you, Madam Speaker. My question is to the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs.

As by-law officers carry out a number of municipal enforcement functions in our communities which affect all of our constituents; would the Ministers responsible for the departments of Justice and Municipal and Community Affairs please advise this House of the following:

1. What NWT statutes, regulations or policies are by-law officers authorized to enforce?

2. What legal protection over and above that of an ordinary citizen is afforded by-law officers in NWT municipalities under:

(a) the Criminal Code of Canada; and,

(b) any NWT statutes, regulations or policies?

Thank you.
