THOMAS

MARSHALL ,

Minister

of Justice and Attorney General

Ordered

to be printed by the Honourable House of Assembly

EXPLANATORY NOTES

General: The purpose of this Bill is to bring before

the House of Assembly matters in the statute law that require legislative

correction as a result of amendments or enactments made in previous sessions.

The amendments contained in this Bill have been brought to the attention of the

Minister of Justice and are technical amendments not involving matters of

policy. Each amendment is explained by reference to the clause of the Bill by

which it is proposed.

Clause 2 of the Bill would amend

paragraph 73(

o) of the Access to

Information and Protection of Privacy Act to correct a citation error.

Clause 3 of the Bill would correct a

citation error in paragraph 2(

b) of the Adoption

Act and would correct a spelling error in subsection 48(3) of that Act.

Clause 4 of the Bill would amend the Agreement on Internal Trade Amendment Act

to clarify the date of coming into force of the Act.

Clause 5 of the Bill would change the

definition of the word "minister" in the Change of Name Act to reflect the current practice of defining

minister with reference to the Executive

Council Act .

Clause 6 of the Bill would amend the Children's Law Act to clarify the

language surrounding the right of appeal from a decision of the Trial Division

to the Court of Appeal where the matter came before the Trial Division on

appeal from a Provincial Court judge.

Clauses 7 and 8 of the Bill would

amend of the City of Corner Brook Act and the City of

Mount Pearl Act to align them with the Municipalities

Act, 1999 with respect to the establishment of ward systems. In other respects these Acts were previously

amended to create uniformity with the Municipalities

Act, 1999 . This amendment was

overlooked.

Clause 7 of the Bill would also amend

the City of Corner Brook Act to clarify the authority under which a violation notice and a summons

may be issued. The authority is in the

Act but the provision implies it falls in the regulations.

Clause 8 of the Bill would also amend

the City of Mount Pearl Act to clarify the authority under which a violation notice and a

summons may be issued. The authority is

in the Act but the provision implies it falls in the regulations.

Clause 9 of the Bill would amend the City of St. John's Act by adding a

section 5.1 allowing the city council to decide to have a ward system. This

provision existed in the St. John's Municipal Elections Act and was mistakenly repealed with the enactment of the Municipal Elections Act . The clause would also correct a grammatical

error in

section 57 of the Act.

Clause 9 of the Bill would also amend

the City of St. John's Act to clarify

the authority under which a violation notice and a summons may be issued. The authority is in the Act but the provision

implies it falls in the regulations.

Clause 10 of the Bill would add an

inadvertently omitted phrase to subparagraph 2(b)(ii) of the Class Actions Act .

Clause 11 of the Bill would correct a

grammatical error in subsection 15(2) of the Condominium Act .

Clause 12 of the Bill would amend the

Crop Insurance Act to correct an

error in reference. The crop insurance

system is administered by an agency not a board.

Clause 13 of the Bill would amend

subsection 57(1) of the Elections Act,

1991 to correct the reference to the Lieutenant-Governor in Council to a

reference to the Lieutenant-Governor. This clause would also correct a

reference in

section 335 to the Lieutenant-Governor in Council that should be a

reference to the Commission of Internal Economy of the House of Assembly.

Clause 14 of the Bill would change

the definition of the word "minister" in the Evacuated Communities Act to reflect the current practice of

defining minister with reference to the Executive

Council Act.

Clause 15 of the Bill would amend the

Family Law Act to clarify that

section 64 relating to separation agreements applies to all conjugal

relationships.

Clause 16 of the Bill would amend the

Fatalities Investigation Act to

reflect the replacement of the

Summary

Proceedings Act with the Provincial

Offences Act .

Clause 17 of the Bill would correct a

spelling error in subsection 10(3) of the Health

and Post-Secondary Education Tax Act.

Clause 18 of the Bill would amend

section 20 of the House of Assembly Act

to add a definition of the word "commissioner" to

Part II of the Act.

This amendment would also provide for the filing of disclosure statements with

the commissioner within 60 days of being elected or appointed as a minister,

followed by further disclosures by April 1 of the second year after the

election or appointment and then annually thereafter. This would avoid having

to file two disclosures within a year immediately following an election or an

appointment as minister. In addition, the commissioner would set the form of

the disclosures. Presently the minister sets the form.

Clause 19 of the Bill would correct

citation errors in subsection 17(6) of the Income

and Employment Support Act .

Clause 20 of the Bill would amend

section 19 of the Income Tax Act, 2000

to remove an unnecessary reference to taxes paid in the previous year. This

would align language with that of other Canadian provinces. The

section would

be retroactive to the date the Act came into force.

Clause 21 of the Bill would repeal in

the Industries Act. This Act is obsolete.

Clause 22 of the Bill would amend the

Labour Standards Act to correct a

grammatical and a citation error in subsection 22(3). This amendment would also

more clearly state the minister's ability to exempt an employer from the days

of rest requirement for employees and to vary or revoke that exemption.

Clause 23 of the Bill would amend

subsection 9(3) of the Massage Therapy

Act to correct a citation error. The subsection was intended to allow

massage therapists operating upon the commencement of the Act to be permitted

to continue in practice without the educational requirements outlined in

subsection 8(2) of the Act but the

section inadvertently exempted them from

other practice requirements of that section.

This

section would be retroactive to the date the Act came into force.

Clause 24 of the Bill would amend

subsection 19(1) of the Mining and

Mineral Rights Tax Act, 2002 to remove a reference to a justice of the

peace. The reference was included in

error.

Clause 25 of the Bill would amend the

Municipalities Act, 1999 to correct a

citation error.

Clause 25 would also amend the Municipalities Act, 1999 to clarify the

authority under which a violation notice and a summons may be issued. The authority is in the Act but the provision

implies it falls in the regulations.

Clause 26 of the Bill would repeal

and replace paragraphs 2(

b) and (

g) of the Neglected

Adults Welfare Act to clarify that an application made under the Act may be

made to the Unified Family Court and to a judge of that court as well as to the

provincial court and a judge of that court.

Clause 27 of the Bill would amend

section 36 of the Occupational Health and

Safety Act to remove a reference to a worker health and safety

representative. This reference was mistakenly placed in the section.

Section 36

deals with employers who have more than 10 employees and as such, they are

required to have a health and safety committee instead of a worker health and

safety representative. This clause would also correct a citation error in subsection

41(3) of the Act.

Clause 28 of the Bill would amend the

Optometry Act, 2004 to add an

authority to make regulations to provide for persons to discharge the duties of

checking the visual acuity of a person.

The provision was in the previous Act and unintentionally left out of

this Act.

Clause 29 of the Bill would correct a

citation error in

section 65 of the Pension

Benefits Act, 1997 .

Clause 30 of the Bill would correct

an anomaly in

section 4 of the Private

Training Institutions Act that would leave a vacancy on the board of

directors appointed under that Act where a director's term lapses and he or she

is not reappointed or replaced immediately. This amendment would be retroactive

to the date upon which the

section commenced.

Clause 31 of the Bill would amend an

incorrect citation in

section 9 of the Public

Employees Act . This amendment would be retroactive to the date when the

section error commenced.

Clause 32 of the Bill would change

the definition of the word "minister" in the Research Council Act to reflect the current practice of defining

"minister" with reference to the Executive

Council Act .

Clause 33 of the Bill would amend

subsection 14(2) of the Statutes and

Subordinate Legislation Act to change the manner of citing regulations to reflect

current practice. The clause would also repeal

section 16 to reflect the

discontinuation of the practice of tabling regulations in the House of

Assembly.

Clause 34 of the Bill would amend

subsection 27(5) of the Teachers'

Pensions Act to include "child" in the list of dependants of a

teacher. It had been unintentionally omitted.

Clause 35 of the Bill would amend the

Urban and Rural Planning Act, 2000 to

clarify the authority under which a violation notice and a summons may be

issued. The authority is in the Act but

the provision implies it falls in the regulations.

Clause 36 of the Bill would amend the

Vital Statistics Act to correct an

error in the citation of

an Act.

Clause 37 of the Bill would correct citation

errors in

section 15 of the Wild Life Act .

Clause 38 of the Bill would amend the

Young Persons Offences Act to reflect

the current usage of "extrajudicial sanctions" in preference to

"alternative measures". The

amendment would also correct citation errors in subsections 6(1) and 8(9) of

the Act.

Clause 39 of the Bill would correct

an error in the Corporations Regulations . The qualifying age should be 60, not 16.
