MLA Public Disclosure Statements

The Commissioner creates a public disclosure statement for each Member based on the information provided to the Commissioner in their private disclosure. The Commissioner follows guidelines laid out in the Act about the information the public disclosure should include.

Public disclosure statements are filed with the Clerk of the Legislative Assembly and posted below for ease of access.
