Gaudry, Helwer, Penner, Plohman, Rose, Sveinson, Ms. Wowchuk MATTERS UNDER DISCUSSION: Bill 212-The Dauphin Memorial Community Centre Board Repeal Act *** Mr. Chairperson: Order, please. Will the Standing Committee on Law Amendments please come to order. We have before us me following bill to consider : Bill 212, The Da 11phin Memorial Community Centre Board Repeal Act. Copies of the bill are available on the tabl� behind me. It is our custom to hear presentations from the public. I would now canvass the audience to ask if there is anyone who wishes to make a presentation to the committee on Bill 212.

Seeing none, the committee will now proceed with clause-by-clause consideration of the bill. Does the member responsible for Bill have an opening statement? Mr. John Plohman (Daup hin): Yes, briefly, Mr. Chairperson, I just want to indicate that I am pleased that the legislature is considering this bill today. This bill repeals

an act that was originally put in place in the 1950s to oversee the parameters and responsibility of governance of the Dauphin Memorial Community Centre. Since November 1, 1992, a new structure has been working after an agreement was negotiated on July 31, '92, just about a year ago almost to the day here. This bill validates all actions by that new Dauphin joint recreation commission that was established by way of that agreement on July 31, '92 and has been working, as I said, since November 1, '92. I want to thank all the parties and members for supporting this bill.

I know that it is appreciated by the town of Dauphin, the Rural Municipality of Dauphin and the Dauphin Agricultural Society, which are parties to the new agreement and were parties to the agreement that was in force as a result of the legislation which we are repealing by way of this bill today, Bill 212. Thank you. Mr. Chairperson: Thank you. Does any other committee member have any comments? Mr. Edward Helwer (Gimll): Mr. Chairperson, I just want to say it is the practice of the legislature, I believe, to pass these if it is the wish of the member.

So, in this case, as the government, we have no problem wi th that and we would be prepared to pass the bill. Mr. Chairperson: Thank you. If there are no other comments, the bill will now be considered clause by clause. During consideration of the bill, the Title and

Preamble are postponed until all clauses have been considered in their proper order. Clauses to inclusive-pass;

Preamble­ pass; Trtle-pass. Bill be reported. That concludes consideration of Bill 212. I would like to thank the committee members for their co-operation today. I would particularly like to thank our Clerk, Judy White, since I believe this is the last meeting of this committee, at least, and also to Hansard who very patiently recorded all our wisdom, but particularly to Judy who sits here very quietly and guides us through some very difficult times. I can assure you that we would not be as far along as we are without her guidance. On behaH of the committee, Judy, I thank you very much for your contribution. Committee rise.
