Thank you, Madam Chair. I move that Bill 74 be amended by adding the following after clause 128:
128.1. (1) Subject to subsection (2), before making regulations under this Act, the Minister shall
(a) ensure that there is an opportunity for public engagement by
(i) publishing a copy of the proposed regulations on a website maintained by the Government of the Northwest Territories, and.
(ii) ensuring that a reasonable period of time has been allotted for receiving feedback on the proposed regulations; and
(b) consider any feedback provided on the proposed regulations under paragraph (a).
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if the Minister is satisfied that the proposed regulations have been prepared in response to an emergency.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
