KLC Regulation Enacted

The Kahnawà:ke Legislative Commission says that the Regulation Respecting Requests for Eviction Orders under the Kahnawà:ke Residency Law was enacted on Monday. The final version of the Regulation under the Kahnawà:ke Residency Law is now published and can be found on the Community Decision-Making and Review Process website www.kahnawakemakingdecisions.com. Justice Commissioner Kevin Fleischer:

“Under the law, anyone residing on the territory, who is not entitled to reside, who is not a resident or who doesn’t have a valid permit, maybe subject to an eviction order issued by the Court of Kahnawake and if a request for an eviction order is issued, the problem we encountered was that we don’t have rules of procedure, of evidence of procedure and evidence at the court as to how the request will proceed. So the regulation is really rules of evidence and procedure at the court for how an eviction order will be issued.”

The Kahnawà:ke Legislative Commission also says that three Regulations under the Kahnawà:ke Justice Act were enacted on Monday as well. They include: Regulation Respecting the Institution and Management of the Administrative Tribunal; and Regulation Respecting the Rules of the Administrative Tribunal.
