Bill No. 46 of 1949. A BILL TO AMEND THE CROWN CULTIVATION LEASES ACT. NOTE. This Bill amends The Crown Cultivation Leases Act, being

chapter of the Revised Statutes .of Alberta, 1942.

Section is amended so that it does not apply to leases issued under the authority of The Land Clearing and Break ing Proiects Act. It is also amended by the addition of a reference to leases issued under the. provisions .of The Public Lands Act. As a result of the division of the Depart ment of Lands and Mines into two new; Departments a new Act, The Public Lands Act, is being enacted in substitution for The Provincial Lands Act, and in the future Crown cultivation leases will be granted under the provisions of The Public Lands Act. The reference to The Social Services Tax Act is also struck out as this Act has been repealed.

Section is struck out and a new

section is substituted. The new

section contains references to the Minister of Lands and Forests by whom this Act will now be administered rather than the Minister of Lands and Mines. The latter part of the

section is also amended. The purpose of the amendment is to make it clear that where part of the share of crop is paid to the Minister as rental and part .of the share of crop is paid to him on account of improvements it is a percentage of the share of crop paid f.or rental only which is given to the municipal or improvement district or school district, as the case may be. The share of crop paid to the Minister for impr.ovements is retained by the Minister. This Bill comes into force on the first day of April, 1949, which is the date upon which the division of the Depart ment is effective. KENNETH A.
