Mandate

The Standing Committee on Legislative Offices approves the budgets of the Officers of the Legislature, including the Auditor General, the Chief Electoral Officer, the Child and Youth Advocate, the Ethics Commissioner, the Information and Privacy Commissioner, the Ombudsman and the Public Interest Commissioner, and reviews the salaries of the officers on an annual basis. The committee reviews officers' requests regarding proposed changes to legislation and forwards the recommendation to the appropriate ministry; the committee does not have the mandate to approve changes to legislation.

The 30th Legislature was dissolved on May 1, 2023. Upon dissolution of the Legislature, Standing, Special Standing, and Select Special Committees of the Legislature cease to exist until the Legislative Assembly agrees to reestablish the membership of each committee in the next Legislature.
