Paragraph 47 Attendance of persons at meetings

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

The person presiding over any meeting of the Cabinet may summon any public officer or invite any other person to a meeting of the Cabinet whenever the business before the Cabinet renders the presence of that officer or other person desirable.

(2)

If the presence of any person summoned or invited under subsection (1) is objected to by any member of the Cabinet, the person shall only attend the meeting to which he or she has been summoned or invited with the agreement of the Cabinet.

(3)

Where an electoral district is not represented in the Cabinet, the member or members of the Legislative Assembly representing that district shall be entitled to attend a meeting convened by the Cabinet once every three months for the purpose of—

(a)

making representations with respect to matters affecting their district; and

(b)

making budgetary representations when the Annual Plan and Estimates are being developed.
