RECOMMENDATION

Her Excellency the Governor General recommends to the House of Commons the appropriation of public revenue under the circumstances, in the manner and for the purposes set out in a measure entitled ``An Act to amend the National Defence Act (remuneration of military judges)''.

SUMMARY

This enactment amends the National Defence Act to allow for the regulations made by the Treasury Board prescribing the rates and conditions of military judges' pay to have retroactive effect. It also clarifies that DNA warrants are issued only under section 196.12 of that Act and makes several other minor amendments to provide consistency between the English and French versions.
