Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise on a point of order. I’ve waited until today to raise the point of order because I wanted to review the previous day’s Hansard. During an exchange with the Premier regarding the courthouse, I made note that on Friday, February 22, 2013, on page 26 of the Hansard, Premier McLeod makes the following statement: “We did, as the government put it, have that project, called the NWT Law Courts Project, and we put $40 million in the capital budget in 2005-2006. Committee took it out of the budget.” There lays the point of order issue.

So I draw all Members’ attention to Rule 2(g) of the Rules of the Legislative Assembly which states, “’Point of Order’ means any departure from any written or unwritten rule or custom of this Assembly or of Parliamentary tradition.” It is, in this instance, the House is governed by its own precedence and long-standing parliamentary traditions and convection.

To confirm this, I have searched high and low and combed committee reports, and I have not found any formal position taken on it, so I draw the attention of the House that that was a breach of committee confidentiality. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
