Mr. Chairman, we're amending the Land Titles Act to do a number of things. My question was regarding interim land protection that certain groups have in certain areas which would also include municipal lands in some cases, and so forth. How does that tie in with what's being proposed here? Does it have any impact on interim land protection?

This bill has no impact on that particular aspect of land tenure. The ability of the government or the instances in which the government decides that they want to deal with land is unaffected by the bill. Once they've made the decision, then this bill simply provides options which don't currently exist to deal with those interests, but it doesn't add or change anything in relation to the interim protection of lands that might be subject to claims.

Say a specific area has interim protection. We make reference to leases that could be transferred to another third party. We talk about lands being transferred or given up. By making these amendments, if somebody wants to transfer a lease of land to another person while the interim protection was in that area, would that still occur or would the government not even deal with it if there is interim land protection in place?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. At the moment, such a transfer of a lease would be permitted and would be recorded in, generally speaking, the records of Municipal and Community Affairs. Once they had taken steps to have the land entered into the land title system, the same transfer with the same effect would take place simply within the land titles system. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
