Paula Biggar, the Minister Responsible for the Status of Women, has asked for a review of the provincial Legislative Assembly’s sexual harassment and workplace violence policies.
In a letter today to the chair of the Standing Committee on Rules, Regulations, Private Bills and Privileges, Biggar noted her support for those across North America who have spoken out about sexual harassment.
She also asked that the review look at how to prevent incidents of harassment and violence; respond to those incidents when they do occur; and support victims, survivors, and legislative members.
