Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, yesterday the Legislature passed Bill 16, An Act to Amend the Legislative Assembly and Executive Council Act to change the name of Government Leader to Premier. I would like to ask whether or not there are any legal implications with the definition remaining the same in the aboriginal languages, or has that been addressed by the government, since, legally, the Official Languages Act is still a recognized document in this Assembly.

I would presume a definition would have to be quite clear when it is translated, too, by our translators. Has that been addressed at all, since the definition in the aboriginal languages will still remain Government Leader?

See context to find out what was said next.
