Thank you, Mr. Chair.
To pick up on the comments and the discussion you had with Mr. Rickford earlier, Manitoba is one of three provinces that has enacted legislation aimed at expediting ATRs arising from TLE and specific claim settlements.
The Manitoba Claim Settlements Implementation Act contains provisions that enable ATR approvals through a ministerial order rather than through an order in council. It also enables pre-reserve designations.
What effect, if any, do you think this legislation has had on the speed at which ATRs are resolved?
