Legislation establishing the province’s first Disability Advocate has passed another major step.
Legislation to create the legal framework for the position was read for a third time last night, and is now slated for royal assent.
It was all cheers and clapping in the House from politicians on the floor and spectators in the gallery.
Earlier this month, Premier Tony Wakeham said he wanted to move the bill through quickly, given growing calls for the position.
