As MLA's reviewed the financial forecast from Finance Minister Mike de Jong, offering comment on his blue print this year for the Liberal Government of Premier Christy Clark.
As for regular Legislature business, and the work of North Coast MLA Jennifer Rice, besides introductions of members in the gallery visiting the MLA on the day, Ms. Rice had two main topics of review for the Legislature this week.
From the seven sessions of the Legislature in the House, or Committee work listed for the week of February 16-19 , MLA Rice appeared as part of the index of the proceedings twice in the week.
