Thank you, Madam Chair. I would like to read in a motion for the record. I move that clause 26 of Bill 3 be amended by adding the following after subclause (2):
(3) A person who has not received a written
response from a local harvesting committee, local band council or Metis council within 60 days after making a written request to the organization for a recommendation for a special harvester licence may, in writing, request the Minister to contact the organization to inquire about the status of the request.
(4) On receiving a request under subsection (3),
the Minister may contact the local harvesting committee, local band council or Metis council to inquire about the status of the request.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
