  • Members' Attendance in the House of Assembly
    Members’ Attendance in the House of Assembly Section 13 of the House of Assembly Accountability, Integrity and Administration Act requires that a Member (excluding the Premier, the Leader of the Official Opposition and the Leader of a Third Party) attend the House of Assembly when it is sitting, but outlines acceptable reasons for a Member’s absence, such as: sickness of the Member; adoption, pregnancy or parental leave as established by directive; a serious illness related to the Member’s family; bereavement; attendance at a meeting of a committee of the House of Assembly, the Management Commission or a committee of the Commission; attendance to duties as a Member of a caucus, attendance to constituency business, or attendance to ministerial duties; and other circumstances as approved by the Speaker. By January 31 of each year, a Member is required to file with the Clerk a declaration under oath or affirmation of his or her attendance while the House of Assembly was sitting in the previous year. Dates of any absences and an explanation for those absences must be provided. A deduction in the amount of $200 is made from the Member’s salary for each day the Member was absent from a sitting of the House of Assembly for a reason other than those provided for in the legislation. The following table provides a summary of the attendance of all Members of the House of Assembly, including those who resigned or were elected during the reporting period January 1 to December 31, 2016.

  • Getting Going
    A Way Home: Youth Homelessness Community Planning Toolkit Getting Going Once you have the infrastructure in place to develop the plan, you’re ready to begin. To help you frame the process, it is helpful to consider the policy development cycle. Like public policy, developing a plan to end youth homelessness involves research, analysis, consultation and synthesis of information. It should also involve an evaluation of implementation and course correction. You don’t have to go through these steps in sequence but consider each as complete the plan development process. Figure 6: Policy Development Cycle Issue Identification Evalitation/ Research & Performance Analysis Measurement Implementation Consultation Decision Solution Making Development Likely, you’ve already identified youth homelessness as an issue and have a sense of what research is currently available. You may have conducted consultations to determine your community’s readiness to develop and implement a plan to end youth homelessness. Additionally, you may know what solutions the plan should include. An effective plan pulls this knowledge together into a coherent strategy – a strategy supported by community stakeholders. 78 A Way Home: Youth Homelessness Community Planning Toolkit In some cases, the process may seem to move in reverse, from solution development back to research and consultation. This is common and not a sign of failure; you should be prepared to go back to the drawing board as new information emerges or the community context shifts. You will also have to consider what resources you have to complete these various activities. As you consult, develop a means to share findings with stakeholders. Develop a ‘what we heard’ document summarizing learning and implications.
