Bill No. 64 of 1954 A BILL TO AMEND THE LIVE STOCK DISEASES ACT NOTE This Bill amends The Live Stock Diseases Act, being

chapter 10 of the Statutes of Alberta, 1946. B~

chapter 60 of the Statutes of Alberta, 1949, provisions relatIng to the control of Brucellosis were added to this Act. The amendment of 1949 provided for the setting up of Brucellosis restricted areas in municipal districts and im provement districts. The Agricultural Service Boards of these districts constituted under The Agricultural Service Board Act to assist and advise the local authority therein, were given duties with regard to a Brucellosis restricted area within the area for which the Board was established.

However, some sections of the amending Act of 1949, by the wording used seem to indicate that the administration of a restricted area is transferred from the local authority to the Agricultural Service Board of the district in which the restricted area is situate. As this is not so, the Act is amended to express more explicitly the duties of the Agri cultural Service Board.

Section 3b is amended. Subsection (1) is struck out. Subsection (2) is amended to remove the reference to the Agricultural Service Board therein. Subsection (3) is amended to authorize grants of the Province for the eradica tion of Brucellosis to be made to a municipal district or improvement district instead of to the Agricultural Service Board concerned.

Section 3f is amended. Subsection (1) is amended to re move the reference to the Agricultural Service Board there in. Subsection (2), which authorizes the recovery of the cost of action taken for the purpose of disinfecting infected premises by the Agricultural Service Board, is amended to authorize the municipality to recover these costs.

Section 3h is amended for the purpose of having the protection there given against actions for acts done under this Act extended to include all the officials administering this Act or assisting therein. This Bill comes into force upon assent. J. W. RYAN, Acting Legislative Counsel. (This note does not form any part of the Bill but is offered in explanation of its provisions.)
