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 replace the Yukon Act in order to modernize it and to implement
certain provisions of the Yukon Northern Affairs Program Devolution
Transfer Agreement, and to repeal and make amendments to other
Acts''.
|
|
|
SUMMARY |
|
|
The purpose of this enactment is to replace the current Yukon Act in
order to modernize it, by reflecting responsible government in Yukon
and renaming a number of public institutions to reflect current practice,
and to provide the Legislature of Yukon with new powers over public
real property and waters.
|
|
|
The enactment includes a preamble stating that Yukon has a system
of responsible government that is similar in principle to that of Canada.
It also contains details on the relationship between the Commissioner
of Yukon and the Executive Council which are consistent with the
conventions of modern government in Canada.
|
|
|
The enactment renames the ``Council'' as the ``Legislative
Assembly of Yukon'', the ``Commissioner in Council'' as the
``Legislature of Yukon'' and ``ordinances'' as ``laws of the
Legislature''. The enactment reaffirms the Auditor General of Canada
as the auditor of the Yukon Government, but also makes provisions for
the Yukon Government to appoint its own independent auditor at a
future date to be fixed by the Governor in Council.
|
|
|
New powers are provided as part of the implementation of a number
of provisions of the Yukon Northern Affairs Program Devolution
Transfer Agreement, which provides for the transfer of the
administration and control of most public real property and water rights
in Yukon to the Commissioner. The enactment includes provisions for
the repeal of federal legislation governing the property and rights being
transferred.
