Motion Text
Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the Honourable Member for Inuvik Boot Lake, that Bill 37, an Act to Amend the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act be read for the second time.
This bill amends the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act to clarify the relationship of the definition of "common or integrated program or service" with the definition of "public body" and to specify that "business days" exclude mandatory leave days for the public service.
It also clarifies and expands the type of orders the Information and Privacy Commissioner can make on the completion of a review. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
