Under sessional business, the statement made by the Premier on February 9, 1994 identified certain issues and certain tasks that the Cabinet proposed to deal with during this session. We're now at the eleventh hour and I just wanted to get some clarification as to the status of the legislation that this government was going to introduce. For example, what is the status of the Access to Information and Privacy Act, as well as the Aboriginal Custom Adoption Recognition Act and the Guardianship and Trusteeship Act?
In her statement, the Premier said that the government would be introducing legislation during this session. I would just like some clarification as to where these three particular acts are?
