Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, Bill 19 is An Act to Amend the Elections Act, No. 2. As Members are aware, Mr. Chairman, when the Standing Committee on Legislation reported on Bill 15, which also amended the Elections Act, it recommended that a further amendment be made to change the qualifications for persons running for office and sitting as a Member of the Assembly.

Additionally, Mr. Chairman, when Bill 15 was being debated in committee of the whole, I committed at the requests of Members to bring forward an amendment that would address the issue of inmates and their eligibility to be candidates in an election. Mr. Chairman, I'll be pleased to address any questions the committee may have on this amendment. Thank you.
