Michael Ballantyne Yellowknife North

Mr. Chairman, I move that clause 77 of Bill 25 be amended by repealing proposed subsection (3) and by substituting the following:

(3) A public denominational school may provide religious instruction and

(a) may conduct religious exercises

(i) in a manner that reflects the religious values of the majority of the ratepayers who petitioned the Minister in accordance with section 97 for the establishment of the public denominational school,

(ii) in accordance with the directions of the Minister; and (b) that religious instruction shall be provided or conducted in a manner that is respectful of the spiritual and religious values of all the students.

Mr. Chairman, I have to correct myself. Mr. Ballantyne went to clause 77 and I did say 79, but I would like to ask unanimous consent to go back to clause 73. Thank you.
