Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, Bill 15 is an amendment to the Legislative Assembly and Executive Council Act. The amendment before you implements in legislation, a decision made by the Legislative Assembly, with the adoption of Motion 12-12(5) on February 18th of this year, which dealt with the use of the term "Premier."

Mr. Chairman, to implement this decision of the Legislative Assembly requires amendments to the Legislative Assembly and Executive Council Act, the Department of Justice Act and the Public Service Act. Mr. Chairman, the bill before you amendments these acts and I will be pleased to answer any questions that you or the committee may have. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
