DELAY OF VOTE

2 February 2019

Esteemed Legislators,

A Motion to Vote and a Second have been duly noted.

However, in accordance with Article 2, Section 5 of the Legislative Procedure Act, the Chair shall delay the vote so as to present this proposed amendment with an amendment of a similar nature, the Amendment to Article IV of the Charter (Election Commissioner).1

In keeping with previous legislative packages, these amendments will be presented in one singular vote.2 As it includes a constitutional amendment, it shall require a three-fifths supermajority of those voting to pass.

A further notice of this vote will be published in this thread when appropriate.




[1] Legislative Procedure Act, Article 2. Powers and Responsibilities of the Chair, Section 5, stipulates: ‘The Chair may delay votes for a reasonable time frame if done for the purposes of vote scheduling or to avoid preemption of active debate by a vote.’
[2] Specifically, A1803.02 Omnibus package (Court reform) and A1807.01 Amendments to the Elections Act, the Regional Communications Act, & the Criminal Code (Permanent Justice).
