2010 Index Guide Legislative Offices LO Index–i

Guide to the 2010 Subject Index Committee mandate: Standing Committee on Legislative Offices is an all-party committee consisting of 12 Members of the Legislative Assembly. The committee approves the budgets of the officers of the Legislature, including the Auditor General, the Chief Electoral Officer, the Ombudsman, the Ethics Commissioner, and the Information and Privacy Commissioner, and also reviews the salaries of the officers on an annual basis. The committee can entertain officers’ requests regarding proposed changes to legislation and forward the recommendation to the appropriate ministry. However, it is important to note that the committee does not have the mandate to approve changes to legislation. There are two indexes for the transcripts of meetings of the Standing Committee on Legislative Offices, a subject index and a speaker index. These indexes cover committee activities during the 27th Legislature, Third Session (February 4, 2010, to February 21, 2011). Abbreviations

Political parties AB Alberta Party AL Alberta Liberal Party Ind. Independent (no party affiliation) ND New Democratic Party PC Progressive Conservative Party WA Wildrose Alliance Party

Abbreviations not included in the above list are in the subject index in alphabetical order. Committee meeting dates and page ranges with links to transcripts:
