Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Hay River South, that Bill 5, An Act to Amend the Motor Vehicles Act, be read for the second time. Mr. Speaker, this bill amends the Motor Vehicles Act to remove exemptions that permit certain drivers and passengers to refrain from using seat belts. The bill also permits municipalities to make by-laws respecting bicycles, sleds, skateboards and other such devices, including by-laws requiring the use of personal protective equipment. The Commissioner is likewise empowered to make regulations at the request of a settlement or unincorporated community in respect of these matters. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
