Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Weledeh, that Bill 9, Youth Justice Statutes Amendment Act, be read for the second time. Mr. Speaker, this bill makes changes in terminology used in the Young Offenders Act to provide consistency with the new federal Youth Criminal Justice Act which will come into force on April 1, 2003. The bill also makes amendments correcting references to that terminology and several other statutes. The bill also replaces references in some statutes to the federal Young Offenders Act which will be repealed on April 1, 2003 with reference to the Youth Criminal Justice Act of Canada. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
