Mr. Speaker, the committee has been considering Bill 10, An Act to Amend the Pharmacy Act, and Bill 13, An Act to Amend the Legal Profession Act, and would like to report progress in that Bills 10 and 13 are ready for third reading.

Mr. Speaker, I move that the report of the Committee of the Whole be concurred with.

Does the committee agree the Minister brings in her witnesses?

Does the committee agree that Bill 13 is ready for third reading?

Bill 13, An Act to Amend the Legal Profession Act, approved for third reading.

Thank you, Minister Lee. I’d like to call on the standing committee responsible for reviewing the bill if they have any comments. At this time I’ll ask Mr. Abernethy.

Move on to page 1, An Act to Amend the Legal Profession Act, clause 1. Agreed?

Clauses 1 through 23 inclusive approved.

I’d like to call the Committee of the Whole back to order. Prior to the break we agreed to deal with Bill 10 and then Bill 13.

Sergeant-at-Arms, could you escort the witnesses in.

Mr. Minister, can you introduce your witnesses, please.

Is the committee agreed?

Thank you, Mr. Abernethy. At this time I would like to ask the Minister if he will be bringing in any witnesses. Mr. Lafferty.
