Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, in Bill 13, The Miscellaneous Statutes Amendment Act, clause 32 which is the Statutory Instruments Act on page 14. I would like to briefly address some concerns that have been expressed regarding the impact of this legislative amendment. This

clause will remove the right of Members of this Assembly to receive a copy of the NWT Gazette. As Mr. Erasmus, previously indicated, the Gazette provides information to Members that we find very useful in carrying out our responsibilities. Rather than moving a motion to amend this clause, I wonder if Minister Todd, could assure this House that through changes to the regulations of the Statutory Instruments Act, he will ensure that all Members who wish to continue to receive their copies of the Gazette will be able to do so, upon request of the individual Member. I wonder if the Minister, Minister Todd, could provide the Members with this reassurance at this time as appropriate. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
