Resolution No. 252

Mr. Speaker, I hereby give notice that on a future day I shall move the adoption of the following resolution:

Whereas the Canadian Food and Restaurant Association is celebrating their 65th Anniversary in 2009 and is one of the largest employers in Nova Scotia with 30,000 direct employees; and Whereas Nova Scotia's restaurant industry provides nearly one in five jobs for people under the age of 25; and

Whereas the Canadian Restaurant and Food Association has solid representation in Atlantic Canada under Vice-President Luc Erjavec;

Therefore be it resolved that all members of this House of Assembly extend our warm regards to the new national president, Garth Whyte, Luc Erjavec, and the 30,000 restaurant employees in Nova Scotia who do such an outstanding job year-round in providing delicious meals to their thousands of customers.

Mr. Speaker, I request waiver of notice.

MR. SPEAKER: There has been a request for waiver.

Is it agreed? It is agreed.

Would all those in favour of the motion please say Aye.

Contrary minded, Nay. The motion is carried.
