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 This provision existed in the St. John's Municipal Elections Act and was mistakenly repealed with the enactment of the Municipal Elections Act.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.
