Issue 3 - Twelfth Report of the Committee

Wednesday, February 7, 2007

The Standing Committee on Internal Economy, Budgets and Administration has the honour to present its

TWELFTH REPORT

On March 7, 2005, the Senate adopted the Fourth Report of the committee which approved the creation of a special fund, subject to a review after one year, to help senators meet exceptional funding needs or special circumstances.

The committee now recommends that the special fund be eliminated and that the remaining amount in the fund be distributed to the Research and Office Expenses Budgets of those senators who did not receive an allocation from the special fund.

Respectfully submitted,

GEORGE J. FUREY

Chairman
