Assembly Rule 249(3)(b) provides that a committee may, if it is considering a Bill that amends provisions of the legislation, seek the permission of the Assembly to inquire into amending other provisions of that legislation. In this regard, the Committee intends going beyond amending the sections in the Rental Housing Act as envisaged in the Rental Housing Amendment Bill. In order for the Committee to amend other sections of the Act over and above what is amended through the Bill as introduced, the Committee is seeking the permission of the Assembly to do so.
