Private Members Bills
Bill C-321 - Library Materials
|
October 4 |
Bill C-321 (Library Materials) - Introduction and First Reading
moved for leave to introduce Bill C-321, An Act to amend the Canada
Post Corporation Act (library materials).
He said: Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to introduce this bill, as I have in
previous times in the House.
This bill moves to guarantee a postal rate for libraries for interchange
and to provide books to Canadians at a reduced postal rate. It also moves to
increase the access, including the definition of library material from
books, magazines, records, CDs, CD-ROMs, audiovisual cassettes, DVDs and
other audiovisual materials.
I would advise members of the House that this bill had been passed
unanimously by all members of Parliament in the last session and had gone to
the Senate just prior to the call of the election.

National Library Association pleased to see re-introduction of
Merv Tweed's Private Members Bill |
------------------------------------
Bill C-509 - Library Materials
On
April 14, 2010, I introduced Bill C-509, An Act to amend the Canada Post
Corporation Act (Library Materials) which was formerly C-322 and C-458.
The introduction of this bill was due to a procedural change to Bill
C-322. However, the intent of the bill remains intact and this
step will not delay the bill's progress or it's order of precedence.
