However, this does eat mean that Members of the Legislature are re- lieved of their Government activities between Sessions. During the Session many special committees are appointed, and near- ly all Members serve on one or more of these special committees. Sone of these committees may meet for three or four days in almost every week of the year. This was the case with the Select Committee on Re- form Institutions appointed at the 1968 Session. Tliis Committee visited many Reform lnstitutipns and sat almost continuously sinea last Spring until now, All 'these Select Commit- tees finalize their findings in the na- ture of a report which is presented to the Legislature and usually re- sults in a new Act being introdueed, or in existing Acts being amended to bring them in line with the findings of the Committee. A Select Committee meets and does its work between Sessions. The Standing Committees }meet only while the Legislative Session is in progress, and are automatically dis- solved when the House prorogues. The report of the Select Commit- tee on Election Law was presented in the House on February 19th, with specifie recommendations as to the chimes which should be made in the Motion Act to keep up with our fa -t-ehanging conditions, Several :,1,'mbers of the 'Committee spoke on the various aspects of the report, as the effect of the recommendations would make quite a decisive change in election procedure. As a result of the Federal Elec- tion on August 10th, 1953, when ninny people lost their vote on ac- rouutof hong or vacation, it was recommended that Advance Polis be set up in Provincial Elections so *hat all people who would be away vacation or on business or for any other reason on Election day, would be allowed to vote at the Ad- v-anee Poll, This Poll would be held for several days in the week preced- ing the date of election. At the present time 100 signa- tures are required on a Candidate's Nomination paper, and a recommend- ation was made to require only 10 ME SEAFORTI-1 NL WS signatures.
